Almost a week after veteran actor Alan Thicke's untimely death, friends, family and former co-stars, including Oscar-winner Leonardo DiCaprio, Kirk Cameron, Joanna Kerns, Tracey Gold and Jeremy Miller gathered to pay tribute to the TV icon.

Dolly Thicke, Alan's daughter-in-law, posted pictures on Facebook of the emotional tribute and described what it was like being there.

"Tonight's memorial for Alan was just about perfect. So much family and so many historic friends came out to remember our beloved father-figure," she wrote.

Dolly continued, "We heard from our own Robin Thicke who brought up all dear dad's best friends, Bob Saget, Bill Maher, Alex Trebec who I had no idea had such old deep ties to our family.
 

"The entire cast of 'Growing Pains' including Leo and Kirk Cameron who I had the pleasure of meeting for the first time, along with his wife who became an instant friend."

Alan died on December 13 after suffering a heart attack while playing hockey with his son. The actor was 69.
