Re: Robin Williams found dead???

Found a July 1st online article saying he had re-entered rehab in Minnesota - current news report mentioned recent depression; sounds like he left rehab too soon, so sad!

Re: Robin Williams found dead???

I want everyone to know this about him.

Robin Williams was a local boy, local family.

He was a man about town, we'd see him everywhere, and he always had a smile and a joke for anyone who said hello.

He was out riding his bike several times when I was doing the same. We'd smile and nod. We lived not far from each other.

He used to have a wonderful house in the Sea Cliff area of town, adjacent to the SF Richmond district. He was known for throwing fabulous Halloween parties for kids, any kids who showed up at his doorstep. Fully decorated, out onto the lawn, and lots of goodies. We took our daughter there for trick or treat.

He was always available to raise funds for charity. He was a kind and generous man.

I'm heartbroken {#emotions_dlg.crying}

Thank you for sharing that.

Why is it, when I have a 50/50 guess at something, I'm always 100% wrong?

Re: Robin Williams found dead???

I guess it's true when they say money can't buy happiness. He has or had a $35,000,000.00 600 acre estate including vineyards and a 20,000 sq. ft. villa in Napa Valley.

I can't fathom this which goes to prove I don't understand mental illness.

He was a incredible talent. So sad that he brought so many laughs to others and could not find his own happiness.

My favorite of his movies was Dead Poet Society.

Very sad.
