Can't beat Wikipedia.
Wonder how long he would have lived if he hadn’t been a heavy smoker.
RIP Jerry Lewis
You were quite the funny man in my youth.
Your work for MDA was extraordinary.
As a little kid, I liked him. That changed when I was 12 during a marathon when he yelled to grab that old broad’s money.
Is Martin and Lewis getting back together?
May he rest in peace.

Just watched Rio Bravo last night with John Wayne, Dean, Walter Brennan, Walt Bond, Claude Atkins and Angie Dickinson. My wife could not believe it was her. Wife also commented that Angie had one small waist. Holy smokes had to be 19 or 20 inches.
I use to say that about Ted Kennedy. Funny how evil never really goes away.

Jerry Lewis -- the legendary comedian, actor, singer and director -- has died.Read more at TMZPenn Jillette just tweeted, "Jerry Lewis just died. When I met him, I fell apart, just sobbed. I guess it's time for that again." Another tweet from Las Vegas Review-Journal reporter John Katsilometes says Lewis died peacefully from natural causes at his home in Vegas ... attributing a statement from his family.
Lewis was one of the greatest comedians in the history of comedy. He was known for his slapstick routines and became enormously famous when he teamed up with Dean Martin in 1946.
RIP, Jerry.
IIRC, he was in Houston, several years back getting a tune up on his ticker.
RIP Funny Man
A real shame..he lived a long life...RIP
I have watched a few interviews with him. He was quite an ahole. RiP Jerry.
Now that’s something I never realized...that Gary Lewis (of The Playboys) was Jerry’s son. I guess I should have put 2 and 2 together, especially after “Everybody Loves A Clown” became such a big hit.

Whatever
I couldn’t stand him
Just what Sunday needed...
A clean comedian, that was a selfless and humble man.
I feel bad that I’ve completely forgotten about him until now.
Only Carl Reiner and Barrie Chase remain from the cast of It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad World.
An era is ending...
