IN LOVING MEMORY
Jerry Lewis born March 16, 1926-August 20, 2017
(Joseph or Jerome Levitch depending on the source)
He brought so much laughter...
It was a challenge in my house that the first person who laughs would lose while watching him on television...
My parents and brothers always would look at me because I laughed very easily...
Before life's twist...
I remember all of us having to go to the bathroom and my Dad called it cheating...
He said you're probably going in and laugh...
If anyone heard laughter you would know as soon as you came out...
We all had to put a quarter in a cup and whoever won got the money cup...
My brothers said the kid don't have no money...
My Dad would look at me...
How much money do you have?
I wasn't about to give my totals because I didn't want them to raise the price just in case...
I said I got a quarter as I dropped it in the cup...
Back in 1971 being four years old I had my needs just like any kid my age...
I knew if I lost I would still end up with more than a quarter by the end of the day...
I could keep a secret real good...
They just never could figure out my game...
From comedy to Jerry's kids...
You will be missed!
Thank you for all the smiles!
I love you Jerry!
Hugs...

Hello Greg...
I was disappointed when I met a famous group...
They had great music but, a mean disposition...
I was glad though because it showed me not everyone is great even if they appear so...
Don't regret that you didn't go to a show, at the end of the day you would had to have left early to beat the crowd or stay and get stuck in the rush...
I was a part of a fundraiser for him when I was 12 years old and after I got there we were told that he was going to make a special appearance...
That didn't happen, but I was just happy to be able to have a part in it...
I met some of the kids though and that was fantastic!
It was a great day!
Thank you for your comment and support my friend!
Hugs and love...

Hello Greg...
Very good and very true my friend!
When I was a kid I used the O.P.M. method and my feet...
It's easier to get people to say yes easier when you're a kid...
It used to be that way...
I think that kids have lost a lot of trust with people over the years...
It was good for me that's for sure...
?
Thanks again my friend!
Hugs and love

P.S. Trump will get his money back!
