Gellar posted a photograph of the bench that Williams sat on in a scene from Good Will Hunting, along with a quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson.

“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 whether 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,” she wrote. “You succeeded RW.”

Shortly after the actor’s death last year, Gellar told People that he was the father she “always dreamed of having.”

“My life is a better place because I knew Robin Williams,” Gellar said.

Williams committed suicide by hanging himself in his home on August 11, 2014. He suffered from depression, Parkinson’s disease and a form of dementia. He was best known for his roles in Mork & Mindy, Good Morning Vietnam, Good Will Hunting and Mrs. Doubtfire.
