"Genie, you're free."
I feel like I should be crying right now, or wallowing in a movie marathon or something, but I'm not. I don't think it's really settled in just yet, but good god do I feel it. I'm one of many who's lost an irreplaceable childhood icon, but the world's lost an irreplaceable gem of a human.
Mr. Williams, you were an individual in every sense of the word, and will be missed greatly. Nanu nanu, and Godspeed, old friend.
