Robin Williams Dead at 63

We are deeply sadden to hear that Oscar winner and comedian Robin Williams died this morning at 63.

CelebNMusic247.com has learned via Robin’s publicist, who wouldn’t confirm that his death was a suicide, a rep did issue this statement.

“Robin Williams passed away this morning. He has been battling severe depression of late. This is a tragic and sudden loss. The family respectfully asks for their privacy as they grieve during this very difficult time.”

Williams who got his break as Mork on Mork and Mindy in the 70s went on to win an Oscar for his supporting role in Good Will Hunting. Robin can be seen in the third installment of Night at the Museum this December reprising his role as Theodore Roosevelt.

He had also signed on to reprise his beloved role as Mrs. Doubtfire in a sequel to be directed by Chris Columbus, and was last seen opposite Annette Bening in the indie film The Face of Love. His sitcom The Crazy Ones premiered on CBS last fall, but was not picked up for a second season.

Here’s the breakdown:

According to a press release issued by the Marin County Coronor’s office, the Sheriff’s office suspects the death to be “suicide due to asphyxia.” The 9-1-1 phone call came in just before noon today.

FOX films released this statement in regards to Robin Williams passing today:

“There really are no words to describe the loss of Robin Williams. He was immensely talented, a cherished member of our community, and part of the Fox family. Our hearts go out to his family, friends and fans. He will be deeply missed.”

We loved Robin Williams and was able to call him a friend, we will miss him very much.

Nano Nano Sir…RIP!
