Paul Michael Glaser continues to say, “I find it difficult to comprehend David’s passing. Seems only yesterday that we were sharing loving insults on the phone,” the actor, 80, tells PEOPLE.

“It just takes time, I tell myself; saying goodbye to such a dear friend and important part of my life I suspect that I will let myself feel his loss, our loss, only gradually.”

“I want to extend my condolences to dear Helen, whom he loved and cherished and who stood beside him through these difficult years,” adds the actor. “He could never tell me enough what she meant to him.”

“To all his sons and his daughter China, my deepest sympathies.”

“And to all of you, our supportive and caring public who recognized a very special relationship and never stopped telling us. Thank you,” says the actor. “We have all lost a dear friend who shall live on in our memories.”

The two actors starred in the hit series together from 1975 to 1979. The ABC show followed two California detectives, Soul as Sergeant Kenneth Richard “Hutch” Hutchinson, Glaser as Hutch’s partner, and fellow detective David Starsky.

In November, Soul said Glaser “is and will always be my best friend, my brother,” in a post on X (formerly known as Twitter).
