    Robin Williams dies at age 63 in his home in California.

    Well this was pretty shocking to me and very sad to hear! What a great man both on the screen and as a human being as well. He will be greatly missed.



    On August 11, 2014, at approximately 11:55 a.m, Marin County Communications received a 9-1-1 telephone call reporting a male adult had been located unconscious and not breathing inside his residence in unincorporated Tiburon, CA. The Sheriff’s Office, as well as the Tiburon Fire Department and Southern Marin Fire Protection District were dispatched to the incident with emergency personnel arriving on scene at 12:00 pm. The male subject, pronounced deceased at 12:02 pm has been identified as Robin McLaurin Williams, a 63-year-old resident of unincorporated Tiburon, CA.


    They suspect he may of commit suicide as he was battling a severe bout of depression.

          if there was one person on this planet that didn't like Robin Williams, he or she was not right in the head. Robin would have come up with some quip, some line to make them laugh, and admit, they couldn't hate him after all. Brilliant, warm, caring, compassionate human being. He was all that before you even got to comedic genius and amazing actor. I loved you Robin Williams and will miss you. May you find peace ever after for your troubled soul. As Red Skeleton would have said, and may God Bless. RIP.

                This is an awful waste of good talent. Robin Williams plays a corrupt children's show host who gets caught taking a bribe. Edward Norton plays a children's character called Smoochy, who takes over Williams' spot, and so Williams goes slightly mad and becomes obsessed with eliminating Smoochy. Some of...
