Thank you for posting this. I grew up watching this show with my family and it became special for us. Last year I lost my dad to cancer, and every time I watch a clip from this show I think of him. I had forgotten about this episode, but it perfectly describes how I feel about my dad. Thanks again.
When a loved one passes away it isn't really saying good bye, it's more like saying, "I will be with you again some day, and that death isn't permanent because God created our spirits first because the best always comes before the second best. We each have a spirit inside of each of us so we die our bodies are laying in wait. But I'm not trying to preach because not every body likes that, but Perfect strangers was one of the best sitcoms to ever be on public television. It was clean and funny and sometimes it said like it was. Straight and to the point. Like life should be. And Balki was so dang handsome that it just made you want to reach through the screen and kiss him. But it was the best of the best.
My grandmother died on the first of October this year...my birthday. She'd lived with us since I was 11. We're not approaching our first Christmas without her. This scene hits even harder now.
So... Balki grabbed Larry by the shirt telling him he is happy. (Me and Larry were thinking the same thing, "Your Ya-Ya dies and you're happy. It makes a lot of sense.")

Nate Churchill I’m so sorry about your dad!! Enjoy watching the clips I’ve posted here.
I wish they would've had a few more episodes of this type. The ones they did, they did very well.
Missing my grandmother on my mom's side. The last time I saw her that was last year and then she died last month. I feel you Balki 😥
Lost my sister not long ago. This rings so true.

So sad I cried because I lost my sister and this really hit home. I miss her dearly.
My grandpa had died not too long before I saw this. This scene sat me down...hard. I bawled my eyes out.

I'm so sorry for your loss.
