It also states that Perry's official time of death was listed as 4:17PM after emergency services were called to the home around 4PM that afternoon after reports he was unresponsive. Previous reports stated that Perry was found submerged in the hot tub by a bystander, believed to have been his assistant, however, the person that made the initial 911 call is yet to have been named. The death certificate also states that Perry's occupation was an "actor" in the "entertainment" industry, in which he had worked for 38 years. An autopsy was performed on Perry's body before it was released to his family for burial and his official cause of death has been deferred until the results of toxicology tests are returned, which can take several weeks to complete. Initial toxicology reports also confirmed that the actor did not have any meth or fentanyl in his system at the time of his death. <img class="wp-image-1263236289 size-full" src="https://img.vt.co/2023/11/GettyImages-908371.jpg" alt="Friends cast " width="1024" height="704" />[[imagecaption|| Matthew Perry's death left Friends fans devastated.
