Comedian described the late Robin Williams as ‘the greatest friend you could ever imagine’ in a touching tribute at the 2014 Emmys.
“It’s very hard to talk about him in the past because he was so present in all of our lives,” Crystal said. “He was the brightest star in the comedy galaxy.”
The comedian concluded by reflecting on the eternal glow Williams would continue to give off, long after he was gone.
“That beautiful light will continue to shine on us forever,” he said. “And you’ll think to yourself: Robin Williams, what a concept.”
