His daughter, Zelda, has also been putting in work to keep her father’s legacy alive. On July 21st, she worked to raise money for homeless shelters on what would’ve been her dad’s 69th birthday. In light of her dad’s 6th death anniversary, she opted to post a message the day before as she was planning to take some time to herself on the actual day.

“It’s hard for me on regular, good days to remain the person expected to graciously accept the world’s need to share their memories of him and express their condolences for his loss,” Zelda writes. “As I’ve said in the past, while I am constantly touched by all of your boundless continued love for him, some days it can feel a bit like being seen as a roadside memorial– a place, not a person- where people drive past and leave their sentiments to then go about their days comforted their love for him was witnessed.”

She continues, “Tomorrow, it is simply too much… Reach out. Seek help. Keep fighting,” she adds. She also includes extra tweets in the thread with suicide hotline phone numbers for those who may be struggling.

This is one of my favorite appearances by Robin, RIP.
