My heart breaks hearing about the death of Robin Williams. He was a huge influence on my comedy. We did a project in 7th grade where we were asked to write our favorite performer and ask for an autograph and I chose him. Months later I received an autographed picture and I was on top of the world. Just earlier this year I was doing a standup show at Meltdown Comics and I noticed him standing against the wall watching. I couldnt believe it. Afterwards he very shyly came up to me and shook my hand and told me I was funny. I will treasure that moment forever. Thank you for everything. May you now have peace, you brilliant man.
