Sarah Michelle Gellar, who played Mr. Williams' daughter on the CBS sitcom "The Crazy Ones," was also among those paying tribute on Tuesday. The actress posted a photo on Instagram of the famous park bench from "Good Will Hunting," along with a touching caption.

Check it out below:

"To laugh often and much; to win the respect of the intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty; to find the beauty in others; to leave the world a bit better wether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition; to know that one life has breathed easier because you lived here. This is to have succeeded" #Emerson You succeeded RW #RobinWilliams
