John Travolta appeared on Thursday’s “Good Morning America,” where he spoke fondly of James Gandolfini, “The Sopranos” star whose death rocked Hollywood on Wednesday and whose friendship meant everything to Travolta.

When the actor endured his own tragedy in 2009 — the death of son Jett — Gandolfini stayed with Travolta to help him through the painful time.

“James went out of his way to come to Florida, and he would not leave Florida until I was OK, or he felt that I would be fine,” recalled Travolta, who went on to describe his late pal as a “people person first and then everything else.”
