Actor, comedian and philanthropist Jerry Lewis died this Sunday at the age of 91
Read the New York Times epitaph to know more about him:

I liked him most when he was part of Martin and Lewis (Link to wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martin_and_Lewis). For me it represents the "good old times" when smoking and drinking on stage was common and Lewis was kind of the opposite of cool Dean Martin. They did together 10 films and countless shows live on stage.
After they split he started his solo career with more films, music, theatre, nightclubs and what not. One of the last real entertainers.
I would love to see him as part of the Rat Pack but that did not happened.
Guess they can join forces no up there in the Big Blue somewhere!
