Today would have been Robin Williams’ 73rd birthday, and many fans have used X to reflect on his life and remember him fondly.

As the CEO of PYM (Prepare Your Mind) mental health company, Zak posted an old photo of his cherished father. However, it was the words that accompanied the image that touched everyone’s hearts:
On what would have been your 73rd birthday, Dad, I reflect on the optimism and happiness you shared with the world. It seems there’s hardly a week that passes without someone recalling how you provided solace during their hardships or difficult times. I am deeply grateful for our bond as father and son. My love for you remains unwavering.
