Robin Williams

Not since the death of Tim Russert have I been so sad when learning of a public figure’s untimely passing.  Robin had such a bright life force – it was blinding at times.  Since his death I’ve learned about many of his charitable activities.  I knew he raised money for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital because my mother and niece met him once during a visit he made to Memphis.  He was patient and accommodating with the interruption and request for a photo.

After learning of the shameless posturing by Rush Limbaugh (it’s hard to even type his name), my husband summed up the situation beautifully with this statement:

Robin Williams was an entertainer who, despite his drug addiction, chose to work to make the world a happier place.


Rush Limbaugh is an entertainer who, despite his drug addiction, chooses to work to spread fear and hate in the world.

Rest in peace, Mr. Williams.
