August 8th marked the 9th anniversary of Robin Williams' death.

In the Academy Award-nominated film, "Keating's" students honor their teacher at the end of the film by climbing onto their desks and chanting the famous words, "O Captain! My Captain!”. A phrase and a role that 25 years later took on a special meaning again.
