Now that one gets to me because when me and my siblings were kids, we were glued to the TV when Jerry Lewis came on. He made a lot of people laugh and he'll be missed. (~_~;)

The things I remember most were the Telethons on Labor Day
weekend. Did anyone ever say why he got involved?

I heard a discussion on talk radio about Jerry Lewis and the telethons but no one knew exactly why he was so involved with that charity. He did raise over a billion dollars for research into muscular dystrophy. In the 1950's and 1960's his movies were on TV all the time and I never wanted to miss one. I don't think there will ever be anyone who will come close to his comedic genius. He was one of a kind. ヽ(ヅ)ノ
