\"When I first started, I was so green,\" White said. \"You made me so comfortable and made me so confident, Pat.\"

She continued, \"As the years have gone by, we've grown up on television, but we've also shared so much more behind the scenes. And as much fun as we had on camera, those memories, milestones and life events we shared with our families outside the studio are my favorite.\"

\"What an incredible and unforgettable journey we've had. And I've enjoyed every minute of it with you,\" she added. \"You're like a brother to me, and I consider you a true lifelong friend, who I will always adore. I love you, Pat.\"
