McNamara, a true-crime writer,died in April at age 46.

Backstage after his Emmys win, Oswalt explained why he wanted to pay tribute.

Grief makes depression cower behind you and apologize for being such a dick.

He added, Im going to start telling jokes again soon.

Its all I knew how to do before I met Michelle.

I dont know what else Im supposed to do now without her.

And not because, Its what Michelle would have wanted me to do.

That was one of the many reasons I so looked forward to growing old with her.

Because she was always surprising me.

Because I never knew what shed think or what direction shed go.

Oswalt won his Emmy for the Netflix specialPatton Oswalt: Talking For Clapping.
