On Saturday, Zak Williams marked the nine year anniversary of his father, the late Robin Williams. The Hollywood icon, who starred in Mrs. Doubtfire, Dead Poets Society, and Good Will Hunting passed away at the age of 63 on August 11, 2014. To honor him, Zak took to Twitter to share a photo of his dad in an old outfit, poking fun at his fashion choices.
Accompanying the image, Zak wrote: “Dad, on the 9th anniversary of your passing, I’m remembering you for your most excellent fashion choices. These days are always hard and I love remembering you for being so very, very YOU. Love you so much!”
Zak’s post was met with an outpouring of love and support from his father’s fans. One person said, “Big fan of your father’s work, I lost my father a year ago. It’s tough learning to cope, but those special memories, including the little things, really help. I have many fond memories of my dad and many of them spent watching your father’s movies. If I could talk to your father Robin, I’d thank him for the awesome childhood memories spent at the movies with my Dad.” Another added, “Your father was my number one favorite. I loved his movies. He was a true legend. My best comedian.”
Among his many notable roles, Robin Williams will be remembered for his iconic performance as the Genie in Disney’s Aladdin. His energetic vocal performance truly made the character his own, and fans will soon be able to see previously unaired footage of him thanks to a special Disney animation, which commemorates the brand’s 100-year anniversary.
As we remember Robin Williams, it’s important to also remember how much joy he brought to the lives of the millions of fans around the world. As one Twitter user said, “There is rarely a soul so universally loved as your dad. He made millions of us feel better on a crappy day. If he could do that for us, mere strangers, I can imagine what he would do for those around his orbit and the centre of his world.” What’s your favorite Robin Williams film?
