I was so shocked to hear of Robin Williams' passing. Shocked, saddened, and tearful. Strange to shed tears for someone I never knew, but felt as if I'd known all my life. He was, as you all probably know, bipolar. He was also a genius, a consumate actor, comedian, and a warm, loving, and generous human being. I particularly loved 'Awakenings' and 'What Dreams May Come'. The world has lost a great man. That's about all I can say. I just read this quote, and thought that it covers it all:

"There are many talented, legendary, iconic people in this world but Robin WIlliams could be set aside in a category apart from everyone else," said Robyn Knapton Ridgley, a Hollywood writer/producer who worked with Williams in the past. "His scintillating genius I treasure to this day."
