President Obama Honors Robin Williams

 

Robin Williams was an airman, a doctor, a genie, a nanny, a president, a professor, a bangarang Peter Pan, and everything in between. But he was one of a kind. He arrived in our lives as an alien – but he ended up touching every element of the human spirit. He made us laugh. He made us cry. He gave his immeasurable talent freely and generously to those who needed it most – from our troops stationed abroad to the marginalized on our own streets. The Obama family offers our condolences to Robin’s family, his friends, and everyone who found their voice and their verse thanks to Robin Williams.

 I like to remember him like this :)

Tribute: Heavy D - 1967-2011

 

Heavy D -- real name Dwight Arrington Myers -- was rushed to an L.A. hospital around noon today ... and was pronounced dead at the hospital at 1 PM. He was 44 years old. 

Heavy D appeared to be making a comeback of sorts. He just performed last month at the BET Awards. He appears in the new film Tower Heist and with Keenan Ivory Wayans bringing back In Living Color, 2012 seemed like a perfect year for him to return to prominance. This is a devastating loss for the Hip Hop community.
