"We are devastated to lose such an important person in our lives, both professionally and personally," the post reads. "We have lost a vital piece of our family − but we ask that the next time you watch the show, especially Seasons 2 & 3 (when he served as Showrunner), you think of our beloved Kendall."

IMDB lists Kendall as an executive producer on "Boy Meets World" and as a director on episodes of "Hannah Montana," "Victorious" and "Big Time Rush."

"He directed, wrote and executive produced our show, but also helped mold some of TV’s most memorable sitcoms, from Growing Pains to Hannah Montana," the post reads.
