On August 18, 2014, David Letterman paid tribute to his friend of Robin Williams, whom he had known for 38 years. Dave tells the story about the first time he saw Robin Williams onstage at The Comedy Store, and Robin was introduced as being from Scotland. Dave goes on to tell more stories about Robin, and they put together a montage of clips from Robin’s appearances on the show over the years.

It’s a very touching tribute to Robin, and you could tell how much he meant to Dave by the way he ended the segment. RIP in Robin. You are truly missed by so many people…

Enjoy this look back at when David Letterman paid tribute to the late Robin Williams just a week after he left us way too soon…

    I always enjoyed David’s delivery, it was different. His friendships and relatable stories make him one of the best, quality, funny hosts of late-night TV. I never knew this about him and Robin Williams. I love hearing stories about the early days of Comedy Club experiences and all who went on to be recognized comedic heroes, of which he and Robin were definitely members. What a wonderful, well deserved, tribute to an old friend.
