Jerry Lewis

I don’t consider myself star struck, but when Jerry Lewis walked into the restaurant I grabbed my husband’s arm and (quietly) exclaimed “Oh my, that’s Jerry Lewis!” We talked about how Lewis has lent not just his name, but has given so much of his time and talent to raise funds for medical research. Inspired, my husband wrote a check for Lewis’ upcoming Muscular Dystrophy Association (MDA) telethon. We asked the maître d’ to deliver it. In a few minutes, the maître d’ returned and said that Mr. Lewis would like to meet us. Standing by Mr. Lewis’ table, I was immediately put at ease by the fact that he was the only one in the restaurant dressed more casually than the two of us! Here’s to Jerry Lewis and his years of dedication to his cause.
