Robin Williams touched the lives of a great many. In addition to his life as an entertainer, he was very active in the philanthropic community in San Francisco. Williams also spoke at the UC Hastings Commencement in 1983. "He spent several days on campus preparing,” remembers one alumna, "and offered up flawless, hilarious parodies of both students and faculty members as part of a message about the value of education and the importance of the legal system in society."
We join the many other fans of this great artist in mourning the loss of his creative spirit. We share this video at the request of many who were there, who wished to have a remembrance of the occasion.

Walked in ,TV turned on, it is Robin Williams and Jonathan Winters comedy duo, sheer brilliance even as interrupting the 3rd guest on Johnny Carson. 8 years later!

Maybe he's going to come back soon. Think he's been in witness protection. Many people are. Saw a clip of him after he was supposedly dead.

“Graduates of UC Tenderloin” / “Remember, what’s right is what’s left after you do everything else wrong.” / and way in the back of your mind, ethics “drives you to pursue things like Truth, Freedom, Mercy, Justice.” / and Williams’s choice of quotes from Brok, his call for “an attempt by judges to measure the impact of the ruling not merely on the litigants before them but on society as a whole.”

35 Years ago... the same year of my birth. 2014... his passing, now more than three years ago- fuck. y'know something? he was timeless otherwise. Mork, I'll shake your hand in Heaven, if I can get the chance after giving my mother a warm hug too. What soul wouldn't want to meet you after hopefully, we all can live a normal lifespan to otherwise meet a man who made lifetimes worth of enjoyment in an otherwise shortened lifespan.

He was known , as many other entertainers, for taking drugs to enhance his CRAFT. If he had given himself to the world, he would have given the graduates an example of how GOD BLESSES PEOPLE to have great peace, & escape depression & suicide, as many will experience, & not just to say GOD bless you. Listen to Denzel Washington's speeches to graduates. Graduates as DO all of us, need entertainment, but also wisdom that they can remember, to guide them into Victorious overcoming peace, which their families, clients, & enemy also, will need to guard the gift of peace, they will need.

Robin Williams, too❓❓❓Wow, what a Star-Studded list! 🌟🤩 Did Elvis, Whitney Houston, David Bowie, Marilyn Monroe, and Steve Jobs enter into the same Witness Protection Program as Michael Jackson? Now’s the time to start believing that anything is possible. Also, be “open” to the idea that perhaps the world you’ve been living in was not quite what it seemed. No matter what, this is the time for each person to ponder this question. What would I do if confronted with demonic evil unlike anything the average man has ever seen? If offered enough “stuff,” would I step into it or walk away? What would you do? BTW: Who else do you think would have a need to go into the same Witness Protection Program? Here’s a guess: Princess Diana. You know, there are others…wait and see! Are you starting to get the feeling that this story may be but a small part of the greatest story on Earth? 🌍💚
