The 63-year old had suffered from depression for years. Last month, California state officials renamed Marin County's Waldo Tunnel, the Robin Williams Tunnel.

Actress Sarah Michelle Gellar, who played Williams' daughter in the sitcom 'The Crazy Ones' posted a picture of a Boston park bench.

It's the same bench Williams sat on in an iconic scene from the movie 'Good Will Hunting.' Geller included a quote from Ralph Waldo Emerson that begins 'to laugh often and much' and ends 'this is to have succeeded.' Geller added 'you succeeded, RW.'
