David Bowick has suffered two recent losses.
David shared a sweet throwback photo on social media from his wedding day, posing alongside his bride, Matthew's sister Mia Perry Bowick, as well as the Friends star and Zoe.
"There’s a documentary about my brother-in-law Matthew Perry coming out on Netflix Tuesday. I’m in it very briefly, but my lovely wife is in it quite a bit," the musician wrote. "I’ve never really talked much about Matthew publicly. He was someone the whole world felt like they knew, but to me, he was just my brother. He always started our interactions with 'Hey, brother,' and I always loved that."
Commenting on the photo, David wrote, "This is Matthew and my sister Zoe at our wedding. Now they’re both gone."
He concluded his post, "I don’t have anything particularly profound to say. I just wanted to share this picture of two people I wish were still here. I miss you both so much."
Zoe Bowick Passed Away This Year

Zoe Bowick was a dancer.
Zoe wasn't a public figure, so there isn't much information about her tragic passing, though it has been reported that she died in September.
She was a dancer, a fitness professional, and a mother of two.
