I have never cried over a celebrity but here we are. Thank you for perfectly summing up what I have to believe many of us are thinking

I'm going to miss the shazbot out of that guy.
I am working on it as fast as I can.
If a person's success in life can be measured by how many people they helped to keep going no matter what by bringing laughter to their hearts and reminding them of the sheer joy of living, then I have to say: hands down, Mr. Robin Williams, you won.

Awful, terrble news. He struggled with depression & addiction for years. More proof that mental illness does not discriminate.
