Our hearts are heavy at WhiteRaverRafting tonight as we mourn the loss of one of the greatest funny men the world has ever seen, Robin Williams. The comedian passed away at the much too young age of 63 at 12:02 p.m. PST today, Monday, August 11 in his northern California home. Early reports suggest the his death was caused by asphyxiation. EDM’s biggest names took to Twitter tonight with their fond memories of the actor, thoughts, and regrets for the world’s terrible loss.
