Popular comedian Angelo Lozada has passed on after battling cancer and his close friend, Trevor Noah just jumped on Instagram to pay tribute to him.

Last year, Angelo was diagnosed with stage 4 stomach cancer and a GoFundMe account was created to raise funds for his treatment.

However, all efforts proved abortive as he eventually died.

Reacting, Trevor had this to say, “When we started our journey together we were driving around the U.S. trying to make 300 people laugh at a time. 6 years later we were traveling the world performing together in arenas. Comedian, father, brother, husband, friend. I love you Pop.”
