A moment of silence for Robin Williams

Always enjoyed the comedy. I hope you RIP.

It's a suspected suicide, too. Just awful that he felt he couldn't go on.

Thanks for sharing all of your talent with us, Robin. I too wish that you RIP, as zany as you were on earth, you've certainly earned it.

Worked with him once on Comic Relief and hands down the best improvisational comedian I ever saw...made me piss my pants more than once.

Evidently he suffered from severe depression, one mental condition for which no one has been able to truly understand or develop a treatment.

RIP, Robin...hope you found the peace that you were seeking.

I found his appearance on "Inside the Actor's Studio."

It's long, as you may imagine, but oh so worth the time.

Depression is something I have never understood but I do know people who tell me they have it and it is almost impossible to overcome.

Robin had at least four films in the can, two more slated and I know of one big budget pic that was talking to him about the lead. It is hard to understand how someone who has everything to live for could do this.

But like I said, depression is something I have never understood.

We San Franciscans have always been proud to claim him as one of our own.

This is a great loss.

RIP Robin.
