On Monday, the Gorilla Foundation's co-founder, Penny Patterson, reportedly broke the news to Koko that Williams had died. The gorilla is said to have reacted strongly, becoming very sad and somber as she bowed her head, her lip quivering.

Robin Williams met Koko in 2001. It was a very cheerful encounter for both, and Koko has treasured it to this day. When Koko learned of Robin's passing (on Aug. 11, 2014) she became very sad. We hope this video will lift her spirits and remind everyone of the profound gift of joy that Robin Williams brought to our world. I think Robin Williams has touched so many hearts we can't even begin to count.
