‘Special soul’
Whitaker tweets a poem and releases a statement on the death of his Good Morning Vietnam and The Butler co-star:
The world has lost a special soul. Robin Williams touched our hearts, he gave us laughter, he gave us joy, he made us think about the impossible. I’m blessed to have been able to walk inside his universe. He forever changed this world with his presence. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family and to all those who hold him dear. Rest in Peace
U touched our lives
U touched our hearts
U gave us laughter n joy
U'r a beautiful soul
U will be missed
Our love to the family
RIP Robin W.— Forest Whitaker (@ForestWhitaker) August 12, 2014
