What a tragic loss for everyone. His family must be devastated.

I have a hole in my heart :(

so sorry that this has really been an awful day for you. prayers for you, your family
and friends and Robin's family.

It's a pity that some of the funniest people have the saddest lives. They make us laugh when they want to cry. He was just three years older than me.

So sad. It just goes to show that a lot of people struggle with their issues, no matter how famous or how much money someone has or doesn't have. He was incredibly talented and he'll be missed.

Lots of sadness in the world. Loved Robin Williams. He made a choice. Others....not so much.

i rec'd a call yesterday from the DH of one of my best friends. She lost her battle with cancer. Was facing her third go round of chemo. (5 year battle ). Puts things in perspectiveve. She was 57. She wont be here to see her only child walk down the aisle. She got engaged as mom lay in a hospital bed. Her friends are also devastated.

Laughter....is a mask at times.

What a shock when I found out. Didn't know he was struggling with his own demons. RIP Robin Williams you will be missed.

People make their own choices. I am truly sorry for his family. I know too many people with cancer and other illnesses that are fighting with every ounce of strength that they have to live -- like my husband did. He did not live.
May God have mercy on Robin William's soul.
