Many years ago , I sat next to Gary on a plane trip from LA to Chicago . We talked for about 2 hours and what a nice , funny , humble guy . The stories he had about his rock and roll career , and also growing up as Jerry’s oldest son . Was a fan of his music before meeting him , now am a fan of him as a person . A true gentleman .

@@1953childstar This comment aged well for what I am going to say. Roughly 6 weeks ago my cousin died. I had no idea he was sick. Then I found out he had cancer from agent orange. He was 74 and served his time from 1967-1970, in Korea. I don't believe, but don't know, if there was any combat at that time. If you google it(That's what I did) you will see that's exactly when agent orange was sprayed in Korea. His older brother was in Viet Nam at about the same time. He's old and in failing health but no agent orange. Gary Lewis admirably served. My late cousin had been drafted, the other one joined and made it a career for 10 years or so. Is one better than the other? Respect to Mr. Lewis and all who served.

givethechanceakid ok, I’ve gone back and upon further review had to change my earlier call/assessment of Jerry Lewis. He gets credit, as you said for doing a lot more more than I realized. We liked him originally when we first saw his nutty professor and delicate delinquent but after those movies he wasn’t so much fun. I do feel however that whatever good he’d done was undone by writing his original children etc. out of his will. If you truly want to be forgiven for whatever ... you must forgive others and he apparently couldn’t do that so that cast a pretty sad shadow over an otherwise sparkly life. Cheers 🍻

He gave them all trusts first of all with the exception of Anthony, and trusts aren't mentioned in wills sometimes. Why should he be required to put his sons in his will anyway? I'm still perplexed on why people get upset about this? He didn't have the money to leave them anymore anyway, and was heavily in debt. He gave his wife and daughter what was left, and his daughter used all her savings when she lost her job in the pandemic. Stop putting people up on a pedestal, and look at them as real humans with real problems like everyone else, and maybe you won't be so disappointed with celebrities. Jerry tried to do therapy once, and they told him that he might not have the need to be funny anymore, once they helped him with his problems. He chose to help other people instead of himself, and continue to make them laugh and feel better through his comedy.

I just shared this song with my G+ friend(Elzbieta Pacuszka, who is a talented photographer in Europe, and like me believes every day is an invitation for happiness). I, unfortunately, had an experience something like Gary's. If you read further you'll find I was a huge fan and still am. Before today, I did not know Gary was the son of Jerry-what a shock! To think someone as talented as Gary could emerge from all that kitsch. I married my Vietnam. And almost thirty years later, I'm still trying to rectify the damage this person purposely perpetrated. She has achieved-ironically-exactly what she threatened to do to me very early in our relationship. I just didn't believe anyone could be that callous. But on the bright side, I have a daughter and two sons whom I love dearly, however, they bought into her stories. I'm just going to continue, like Gary, with that inner joy. Green Grass: I felt that song just sparkled with such a positive vibe. I just now shared the song-she probably won't listen to until tonight-that's when she seems to post, because I'm sure as prolific as she is, she's working all day-like I should be. I guess the fact that I'm still sharing it with friends fifty years after the first time I heard it, tells you how much I like "Green Grass." Others have thought it weird that I like it far more than all the moody stuff, which I guess ruined the market for Gary Lewis by the time he returned from Vietnam. In case you read this, Gary(It's not the first time I shared the song via media.) I shared it with the guy who actually bought most of our 45rpm singles when he was in Vietnam. I put over 50 songs on a C-120 cassette tape and sent it to my brother Denny who was there at the same time you were. He said it was his favorite music tape during his whole tour of duty. And Green Grass was the first song on the tape. (You can't make this stuff up.) I think you'll find more and more, people loved you a lot. Forgive me for saying this-but your Dad had to have a screw loose to treat you that way. (I know he did a lot of good in his life though, too) (This was how I shared it on G+ because I thought it would be far more meaningful if Elzbieta and a couple of her friends that liked the other songs we shared could actually understand the words since their first language is Polish. Though they don't really seem to have a problem with English, I just thought it would be nice… (I'll add a link at the end, in case you'd like to see how much someone can like shared a song.) I'm interested to see how the Polish market picks up on this. Who knows Gary could be the next Polish Prince if he's willing to cut a multi-lingual version. Sorry, this ran so long. So long. Green Grass(I'll run it through Google Translate from English to Polish-And, hopefully, it won't lose too much in the translation.) Performed by Gary Lewis and the Playboys Written by Roger F. Cook and Roger John Reginald Greenaway Peak chart position # 8 in 1966 (This was one of my favorites when I was a young guy. I loved fishing, drawing, oil painting, sailing, and I thought I had died and gone to heaven when I found my own boat in the cove of Lincoln Lake after a storm[there was just enough sand washed away to reveal its top rail] When this song was released, it was so upbeat, it just gave me joy). plus.google.com/u/0/117997677048857842439/posts/ZNGAxztFGX8?cfem=1

I adored his music. He truly made a name for himself in his own right. Wished the war hadn't destroyed that. Never liked the screeching of Janis Joplin, but to each his own.

Keep in mind the musical genes he inherited from both parents. Both paternal grandparents were musical and on his mother's side, she and her family were quite musical. So...really he couldn't miss getting that wonderful gene.

In watching Gary doing interviews and learning how hard he has worked in his life, he seems like a really nice guy and not spoiled or into drugs like so many celebrities' children. I never cared for Jerry Lewis' style of comedy and it appears as though he was not good to his family. I always liked Gary's songs and am glad he was a success in his own merit.

He played at a local 'joint' in Covina, CA, near where my condo was. Stopped in and watched. Not really a "club", just a bar. But it was neat he did stop in for a set.

A man is drafted, spends months in training, is shipped overseas away from his family (my husband shipped out 1week before Christmas) spends a year doing his job And most of the men were fearful. Some were stationed where he had a safe job. The majority saw awful things and couldn’t talk about it when they returned. All courageous and all vets of the Vietnam Nam War no matter their station.

Jerry did help out his son. He help spread the name Gary Lewis and the playboys, and even in some of Jerry’s films you can see cameos by the group. Family Jewels has two are three references to Gary Lewis itself

I think the folks at Disney really knew who he was. Come on his name is *Gary LEWIS* , he talks and looks just like his dad did back in the early days. But I'm sure he got the job not by being " *Jerry Lewis's* " son, NO, he got the job because of his talent! Because of the entire groups talent. And they had some great songwriters 😱😱😁😁
