Robin Williams
« on: August 11, 2014, 09:38:33 PM »
What a great loss we all had today with the death of Robin Williams.  R.I.P. Robin Williams.

I just read about his death. He was such a funny man and a wonderful actor. I am saddened by his death. They are saying suicide at this point. So very sad. I will miss him.

I hope that he's making God laugh in heaven right now - what a great soul! If you haven't seen him in "What Dreams May Come", it would be worth your while... especially now.

Aw, you beat me to that comment, "Jersey!"  ;)

I was also saddened to hear about this.  I always enjoyed Robin's comedy.  Now the world has less laughter in it -- but Heaven probably has more...

Yes, love the car scene and the "duel" with the kids!

Being an owner of a Class A motorhome, my husband and I really liked Robin Williams in "RV". You have to own one to truly appreciate the comedy in that movie. We've watched it many times so far and still laugh every time we see it. It also has such a good message. Some people watch the movie and miss the important message at the end. Pretty cool.

That was  a funny show.  Loved the Blackwater drain scene, it was a scream
