I just saw this thread and I had to post! Robin was so extremely talented, like everyone else his sudden death last yr shocked and stunned me. His death will always bother me and won't lessen over time. He's just one of those celebs that hit a personal chord with me. He was amazing! RIP

on the radio today they told a story of Robin back from 2004...

a young girl with cancer in NY made one of those "make a wish" wishes and wanted to meet he movie idol Williams...
Williams agreed and the young girl and her family were due to fly to California to meet him for the day...
the day before they were due to fly, the girl got really sick and was not able to fly, they advised the people who organised the 'wish' for her and thought nothing of it...
anyway, the next morning Robin knocked on their door, he had 100 dvds and games for the young girl...
he played with her all day and flew back to California that night...
a week or so later the girl died, Robin Williams flew out to attend the funeral and paid the funeral costs for the family...

that is,IMO, one of the saddest,yet uplifting stories i have heard in a long long time....cudo's to Robin Williams and his charitable personality!!!! 10/10 Robin, you made that young girl's dream come true and probably made her last few days exciting and enthralling.

Beautiful story
