Diane Keaton’s passing has left a significant void in Hollywood. Tributes to the Academy Award-winning actress, who died away on October 11, have flooded the internet as her family mourns the loss.

Shortly after her death, her dear friend, Grammy and Academy Award-winning songwriter Carole Bayer Sager, stated that she saw Diane Keaton just weeks before her death. She was “stunned by how much weight she’d lost.”

“I saw her two or three weeks ago, and she was very thin,” Sager told People. “She had lost so much weight.”

On Thursday, Keaton’s family released a statement, thanking them for the support as well as revealing that the mother of two died from pneumonia.

“The Keaton family are very grateful for the extraordinary messages of love and support they have received these past few days on behalf of their beloved Diane, who passed away from pneumonia on October 11,” the statement read.
