    I think we all still get choked up when thinking about Robin. He is dearly missed by everyone.

    It’s 2024, I think we are all still grieving over the loss of Robin Williams. If only he knew just how much he was deeply loved by all. It’s breaks my heart that he saved so many people with laughs, but was struggling with his own darkness and I feel so guilty we didn’t save him when he needed saving the most.

    If Robin was still alive, he would also be happy seeing Billy receiving the honor.
  • us older folks remember the trio. they were lovely together. I indeed miss Robin. the world is not the same without him.
  • What a heartfelt tribute to Billy from Whoopi. I so, miss Robin, too. The 3 of them were an amazing trio of human beings/ performers. God Bless all of them.

    Many of us choke up thinking about Robin still as well. He made an impact on so many people’s lives.
  • How could she have not talked about Robin?! His absence was the elephant not in the room. His absence left a glaring hole in the proceedings. From the moment she stepped onto the stage I kept thinking "she better pay tribute to Robin, too". Robin, a great humanitarian is one of the top 3 comedians of all time.

    Yeah, I still remember when Billy Crystal was on the view shortly after Robin's death, and they had such a hard time talking about him without breaking down, I just wanted to reach into the t.v. and be able to give them a hug. 🤗😔❤

  • That was so touching for Whoppi to bring up the Robin❤.May he rest in peace and is truly missed.

    I cried with Whoopie. Robin Williams was one of those special people who always made you feel good by giving you a smile and a laugh. Robin will always be missed

    Of all the celebrity passings in my lifetime, whether they were older and at peace and ready to go, or young and gone too soon, no one's death has stuck with me the way Robin's has. To this day I still from time to time am reminded of him, and still feel the grief like it was yesterday. For context, Im in my 30's. Disney's Aladdin was my first movie cinema film, Hook to this day is still my favourite film of all time, and I constantly quote the Birdcage just because. I'm not famous person but if my life were made a lifetime movie, he would've played my Dad. Looks and personality. I speak for a lot us when I say, "I still miss Robin Williams."
  • Now, more than ever, the humor and “comic relief” that our world needs is necessary. Robin is sorely missed, but thank goodness that we still have Billy and Whoopi, - and many other great comics to get us through these difficult times.

    I couldn't deal with it for a long when Robin passed away. I couldn't discuss it, read about it, talk about it. So on and so on. I'm from the same area as him and knew him as an acquaintance before he became famous. He was a force even then. No one deserved fame amd the world's love more ❤

    I really miss Robin Williams, he really was one of a kind also both a worldclass actor and stand up comedian, he could do anything.
