One of my favorite Jerry Lewis movies is Cinderfella. As a teenager and college student, I wouldn't miss a televised Jerry Lewis Telethon for the world. He always had top-notch entertainment and the entire show kept me mesmerized from start to finish. His humor and comedic timing has an innocence to it that was sweetly funny and uniquely Jerry Lewis. His passion to help people with MD and the work he did to raise money for a cure is unsurpassed. Jerry Lewis was one of the great ones.

It's sad to see all the great ones leave this earth. It's going to happen, no way around it. Still... it's sad when it does.
