It has been confirmed by Robin Williams’ publicist that he has indeed passed away at the age of sixty three. This famous actor is suspected to have killed himself but that is not what many people will remember him for. He will be remembered for many of his wonderful movies and his acting career.
“Oscar winner and comedian Robin Williams died this morning at 63. While his publicist wouldn’t confirm that his death was a suicide, a rep did issue this statement. “Robin Williams passed away this morning. He has been battling severe depression of late. This is a tragic and sudden loss. The family respectfully asks for their privacy as they grieve during this very difficult time.” (Entertainment Weekly)
At this sad time, people need to take some time and remember his funny moments. He had won an Oscar for his supporting role in Good Will Hunting, and in December he will be present in the third installment of Night at the Museum.

At this time, his wife, Susan Schneider, has asked this of the world:
“This morning, I lost my husband and my best friend, while the world lost one if its most beloved artists and beautiful human beings. I am utterly heartbroken. On behalf of Robin’s family, we are asking for privacy during our time of profound grief. As he is remembered, it is our hope that the focus will not be on Robin’s death but on the countless moments of joy and laughter he gave to millions.”
As a grieving widow that shared his life with millions of fans, she has asked that people’s focus is on his life and joy that he gave to millions. As a comedian, he brought tears of joy to many people and will never be forgotten.
With his countless movies such as Mrs. Doubtfire and Patch Adams, he has left behind a legacy of happiness. In attempt to honor her wishes, here are some funny images to remind everybody what he was all about in life.
