My very favorite comic of all time. I remember one part of his comic act which gave be a belly ache from laughing when he said.
"So security at the airport takes away the knitting needles from an 88 year old woman, then he's patting down this 8 year old boy who said "What are you doing. Let go of me. You're not a priest".
Rest in peace Robin. Thanks for the laughs, especially when I was going through the horrendous treatments...

I saw a great quote from his daughter Zelda
"As for those who are sending negativity, know that some small, giggling part of him is sending a flock of pigeons to your house to poop on your car. Right after you’ve had it washed. After all, he loved to laugh too…"
It looks like there is more empathy floating about ever since it was announced he was diagnosed with Parkinson's. Add a diagnosis like that to an addict who could be struggling with recovery along with a history of depression it is easy to imagine how he imagined himself as feeling trapped.
God I loved that guy....he was the best. Another one was Jonathan Winters, Robin Williams spoke of him as "one of the guys he looked up to".
Bless his kids, so terrible that there was some bad things said (or whatever it was) on one of the social sites his daughter was on. A loss of human life is the same at any level and you should be allowed to mourn in any way you choose. His kids are no exception. They lost there daddy. I wish the media had more respect.
Party on Robin Williams!
They say he was recently diagnosed with Parkinson's. Sad he couldn't say
with us. He was an amazing performer and person with a kind heart. He will be missed forever.
I agree it's so sad i too was brought up with Mork&mindy. RIP Robin Williams you will be sorely missed. Such an amazing talent. Thinking of you& your family. Love Julesxx
oops, sure wish there was an edit function on here :)
Captain oh Captain...you will be missed
The social side of the forum is for anything you want to talk about except politics.
Yes, many of us are sad and shook by this tragic news :(
I think I am still in shock over the news, I remember .......very sad
