Jerry Lewis

July 15, 2018
Was watching Netflix’s new season of Jerry Seinfeld’s “Comedians in cars getting coffee” whom he sat and had coffee with the great comedian legend, Jerry Lewis.
What a great episode and tribute to this king of comedy. As we all know, Lewis was more then a comedian, he was also a humanitarian with a huge huge heart! Always doing for others!
I recall every Labor Day weekend up at our family cabin – watching Jerry work his audience relentlessly for 21 and 1/2 hours. His efforts raised a total of $2.45 billion from 1966 to 2009!
I truly enjoyed watching Seinfeld – a king of comedy in his own right – interview one of his idols, Jerry Lewis. During the interview, I noticed the birth mark/age spot on Lewis’s face – it is shaped as a heart.
It’s sad to see an individual that gave so much of themselves to better the lives of others – pass on.
All we can do to properly honor them, is to selflessly do more ourselves.
