ROBIN WILLIAMS is seen visiting a popular ice cream parlour in what could be the last ever photograph of the late comic and actor.
Posted to the Facebook page of a Dairy Chain restaurant in Lindstrom, Minnesota, the 63-year-old is shown posing next to a female member of staff.

The image was shared on the social network on June 30, at the same time Williams was reported to be staying at an addiction treatment facility in nearby Center City.
He was believed to have been reconnecting with the 12-step programme during his brief stay at the Hazelden centre.
The Oscar-winning star's publicist also revealed Williams had planned the visit to recharge after 18 straight months of work.
Speaking at the time, Mara Buxbaum said her client was "taking the opportunity to fine-tune and focus on his continued commitment, of which he remains extremely proud".
His representatives also said he was not using drugs or alcohol and was continuing his sobriety.
Commenting on the photo soon after it was posted on Facebook, a fan wrote: "Best wishes Robin Williams as you focus on yourself and your long term health and happiness.
"You're an amazing talent and a national treasure."
The last social media posting by Williams himself was made two weeks ago, to mark his daughter Zelda Rae Williams' 25th birthday.
Posting a photo of the pair of them from Zelda's childhood, the actor wrote on Instagram: "#tbt and Happy Birthday to Ms. Zelda Rae Williams! Quarter of a century old today but always my baby girl. Happy Birthday @zeldawilliams Love you!"
Williams had previously spoken openly about his battles with alcohol.
He began drinking again in 2003 after 20 years sober.
After three years of drinking, he went back to rehab and continued his recovery by attending weekly AA meetings.
Williams was yesterday found dead at his home in Tiburon, California in a suspected suicide.
The Marin County Sheriff's coroner's division said it was suspected Williams committed suicide by asphyxia.
An autopsy will be carried out today.
