“To millions, he was a writer and comic, but to us, he was just the centre of our entire world,” family adds.

Trevor Moore, the iconic sketch comedy troupe The Whitest Kids U Know co-founder, died Friday night at the age of 41. Moore's manager confirmed Moore's death in a statement to Variety on behalf of Moore's family. The reason of death could not be determined right away.

The message said, "We are saddened by the death of my husband, closest friend, and father of our baby." “To millions, he was a writer and comic, but to us, he was just the centre of our universe. We're not sure how we'll manage without him, but we're grateful for the memories we do have that will last a lifetime. We are grateful for the outpouring of love and support from everyone.

Moore started his career as the host of The Trevor Moore Show, a public-access show in Charlottesville, Virginia, in the late 1990s. Moore, a former intern at Saturday Night Live, co-founded the sketch group with pals Sam Brown, Zach Cregger, Timmy Williams, and Darren Trumeter while still a student at SVA. In the early 2000s, the ensemble performed regularly at both the school and New York bars, eventually being picked up as a show by Fuse and then IFC. It ran for five seasons until being cancelled in 2011.

Moore and Cregger co-wrote, directed, and acted in the comedy Miss March in 2009, about a guy who awakens from a coma to discover his fiancée is a Playboy centerfold. In 2011, a sequel, The Civil War on Drugs, was released. On Twitter, Cregger stated, "There isn't really much I can say that can fill the position he has in my life." “He was a one-of-a-kind individual. A smart and generous individual. I'll never forget you, buddy.”

Moore continued to work in comedy and television after The Whitest Kids U Know, appearing on The Tonight Show With Jay Leno, partnering with Comedy Central (The Trevor Moore Show) and Funny or Die, and producing and hosting his own talk show with comic Josh Fadem. He also released three albums: 2013’s Drunk Texts to Myself, 2015’s High in Church and 2018’s The Story of Our Times. He most recently was the co-creator of the Disney series Just Roll With It.


In a statement to Variety, Cregger and Brown said, "We heard early this morning that we lost our brother, our colleague, and the driving force of WKUK." “He was our best friend, and we speak for all of us when we say that Trevor's death is unfathomable. We are sad, but our sorrow pales in comparison to his wife and son's agony. On behalf of WKUK, we respectfully request privacy at this difficult time, as well as support for his family as they cope with the impossibility of life without him. Our goal is that his friends, fellow artists, and fans will remember the numerous moments of fun he brought them rather than his death.”
