Former “Jeopardy!” champ Ken Jennings paid tribute to late host Alex Trebek on Sunday, revealing that he is “grateful for every minute I got to spend with him.”

“Alex wasn’t just the best ever at what he did. He was also a lovely and deeply decent man, and I’m grateful for every minute I got to spend with him,” Jennings posted to Twitter.

“Thinking today about his family and his Jeopardy! family—which, in a way, included millions of us,” he continued.

Jennings, who currently holds the longest win-streak on “Jeopardy!” with 74 wins, singed on as a consulting producer for the show in September 2020.

Trebek died Sunday at the age of 80 after a battle with stage 4 pancreatic cancer. He had hosted “Jeopardy!” for 36 years.
