The life of Jerry Lewis

  He made us laugh, he made us cry.... He was an amazing man.
Jerry Lewis passed away at the age of 91 and we will miss him, but not many people knew about his life. He did an exdroinary amount of work with movies staring Dean Martin before going solo.
I remember him in such works like "Cinderfella", "The Nutty Professor" "Don't Give up the Ship" he was a cameo in "It's a mad, mad, mad, mad world" and appeared in "Hook, line and sinker", "The Red Skelton show" and much more.

He even had a telethon for MDA that he would be a part of the telethon until in August of 2011 when he said he would no longer be able to host.

  He lost his son, Joseph, to drug overdose. Another son, Gary, is a musician and has a band called "The Playboys"


His buddy, Dean Martin, were considered good friends but they never got along, they would argue and even fight once in a while, and that would cause Jerry to break up the duo. To Dean, Jerry was nothing but a f**king dollar sign to him, when they made films together. Their final film was Hollywood or Bust.

Dean died of cancer at the age of 78 in 1995, leaving Jerry heartbroken and without a friend.

I always found Jerry to be funnier than Dean Martin, but than again, I didn't know Dean that well. 

We've lost so many this year. Jerry was sick and lived a great life, Hopefully he will spread happiness and meet his buddy again at the purely gates. RIP JERRY LEWIS Hollywood and many fans will miss you.
