Very few of the old stars remain. Time marches on. RIP Jerry.

Back in the day, his telethon was the only thing you could watch on TV on Labor Day weekend.

Five years ago or so I was supposed to play his show in Sarasota. Unfortunately it was cancelled and never got to play it. I imagine it would have been a lot of fun.

When I was a kid I used to love watching his old comedy movies with Dean Martin.

Deano was the man. Those old celebrity roasts were a riot...

I feel sad that I thought he was dead already.

I remember his telethons mainly, although he was pretty damn good at goofy slapstick with Martin playing straight. Was not technically a member or the rat pack, although perhaps he was an honorary member. Martin, Sammy, Frank, Joey Bishop, am I missing anyone?
