“When you hear about something like that, as a friend you start thinking immediately, could have done something more. Could have been there just for extra time, seeing him, talking to me him, send an extra message and basically because of that my first instinct was that I wanted to cherish the time we had together with Robin.

“I would like to one more time get all the friends together. Speak about him, remember how happy he was in his good days and go over the things he loved,” he explained
