Robin Williams’ Son Zak Posts Birthday Tribute Photo Of Late Dad In Spandex

Zak Williams is paying tribute to his late father, Robin Williams, on what would’ve been the actor’s 71st birthday. Zak opted to remember his father the way he’d want to be remembered; for being the guy who simply wanted to make people smile. The 39-year-old posted an older photo of his dad, wearing a spandex bike suit and a helmet.

“Happy 71st Birthday Dad!” the post read. “I’ll be remembering you today as you would want to be remembered, in spandex. Miss you and love you always!”
