Oscar-winning actor and comedian Robin Williams, who dazzled in such wide-ranging dramatic and comedic roles as alien, nanny, therapist and cartoon genie during a four-decades long career, was found dead in his northern California home in a suspected suicide Monday. He was 63.
The Marin County Sheriff’s Department said in a statement that Williams was found unconscious and not breathing in his home around noon. The statement said the investigation into Williams’ death is ongoing, but the coroner “suspects the death to be a suicide due to asphyxia.”
A representative for Williams said in a statement the actor had been battling “severe depression of late.”
“This is a tragic and sudden loss,” Mara Buxbaum said. “The family respectfully asks for their privacy as they grieve during this very difficult time.”
The death of Robin Williams is truly like a death of so many childhood memories. So many great TV shows and movies. But the best of all was his brilliant comic ad-lib. I can remember Robin Williams from when he first came to our TV’s on Happy Days as Mork. This would in turn spin off into Mork & Mindy where he starred with Pam Dawber as an alien living in Bolder, CO. Williams starred in some of my favorite movies like The Bird Cage, Good Morning Vietnam, Good Will Hunting, August Rush, Moscow on the Hudson, The World According to Garp and Dead Poets Society.

Good Morning Vietnam
Dead Poets Society – the mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation; don’t resign to that…
Not only a great movie scene, but words to live by. “We much constantly look at things in a different way. Just when you think you know something, you have to look at it in a different way.”

I’m shocked and heart broken over the loss of Robin Williams. I will keep his family in my prayers. Rest In Peace Robin.
The world has lost a great comic and actor. Many of his movies will become classics of the time.
Robin Williams ,as brilliant as he was on stage, had an addiction problem most of his life. Some people seem to acquire addiction a lot easier than others.
The medical community needs to find a new term for the type of illness that Robin and countless others seem to get. The word “Depression” has become meaningless because people have associated it with just being sad.
I understand that Robin was a very caring person. He must of been in a state of overwhelming depression, otherwise he never would of left those he loved crying and heartbroken, instead of his usual comical laughter. Such a tragedy. He was only 63. May he Rest In Peace.
