He gave me so many happy and heartfelt moments that have helped me a bunch through my life. Hope he's out there enjoying the rest of existence, whatever or wherever it is.
Last thing I ever saw him on was the Louis C.K. show. He played himself, he and Louie went to the sparsely attended funeral of a comic they both knew who was a jerk to everyone and who everyone hated. They went for coffee afterwards, talked about how the deceased comic was always trying to get people to go to this strip club with him and no one ever went and they decided to go there in his honor.
They get to the strip club and a stripper offers them a lap dance and they wind up explaining that they're only there in honor of this guy. The stripper bursts into tears and the whole strip club shuts down as the DJ announces this guy's death - here, he was the nicest and most popular guy on the planet. Everyone loved him.
They walk outside confused, and crack up laughing.
The show ends with Robin and Louis agreeing that they'll at least go to each other's funeral, should the other die first.
Everyone deserves to be remembered as their very best.
For Robin Williams, that's rarified air. He was a true comic genius.
