    Hi Lewis, I have been a fan since your days on the "Daily Show" and have always thought of you as a great humanist. Only the truly kind can express outrage with such passion.

    Was there at the taping in Huntington Long Island and totally loved it. I thought it was a great night and the end was the best, why? I could see how much Lewis enjoyed the crowd, his set, and the moment. It’s nice to see a person enjoy what they do and get praise for doing it well.
    Glad it was my first live comedy show and am looking forward to the next.
    We love ya Lewis!!

    My heart goes out to you brother I just lost my drinking buddy that I hung with for years to cancer after a five year battle that my wife and I drove him back and forth to the hospital to see his doctors and fight it and he at least lived long enough to see his granddaughter 😎. I can totally relate. We would do like a karaoke night where we would sing the Beatles and the stones and AC/DC and whoever else we could sing. I definitely miss him.☹️✌️😎♥️

    I'm so so sorry for your great loss. I was a big fan of his work. I think he was a fabulously talented actor and person. I have grown up in Rhode island my whole life. Born in Providence and raised in Johnston right next to Edgewood Cranston where Bruce grew up. I'm so sorry I can't believe he is gone one of the most things I admire about him is him putting his career on hold to return to school to become a nurse to only take care of dying friends what a man you were blessed to call him friend. I wish you peace in your heart as I know it is broken. Love you my friend and hope you feel better soon

I wanted to see you in Frederick MD when I used to live there at the time, but due to COVID, we had to cancel my ticket. so now, me and my folks live in Texas, which we've been in almost a year by June 9th. and dear lord has it been tough & beyond stressful.
