That’s not where it was found. Actually, it appears to have originated with an article posted by Brian Lord (“A Little Known Robin Williams Story”) on 12 August 2014, recounting the author’s experience in attempting to hire Williams for an event. Snopes claims this is unproven, which doesn’t mean it isn’t true. It went viral through Facebook. Is a fact? I’d like to believe so. You’re right, it can’t be called a fact.

Teenage Tom Petty took guitar lessons from a slightly older guy, Don Felder, (later of the Eagles) in their shared hometown of Gainesville, Florida.

Well before joining the Eagles, Joe Walsh and his wife had a daughter who died at 3 in a car crash. The mom was driving. In her memory, Walsh installed a water fountain in his daughter's favorite park.

O.J. Simpson's had a daughter, Aeren (from his first marriage to Marguerite) who drowned at age 2.

Mongolian.


(Having a name with “glory” on the end is not weird. I can’t tell you how many “Slavas” I’ve known. You must not know a lot of diverse groups.)
