Comedy legend and icon Jerry Lewis is dead at age 91, it’s being reported. French hardest hit.

Don’t be upset, he would have wanted us to joke!

More from Fox News:

Jerry Lewis, the rubber-faced, squeaky-voiced comedy legend who starred in movies and musicals and also was known for his unflagging work on behalf of the Muscular Dystrophy Association, died on Sunday, his publicist confirmed. He was 91 years old.

Lewis’ publicist confirmed the news to The Associated Press. The Las Vegas Review-Journal columnist John Katsilometes first reported Lewis’ death.

Lewis “passed peacefully at home this morning of natural causes at the age of 91 with his loving family by his side,” manager Mark Rozzano said.

Lewis had gone through a series of health problems and scares in recent years. In June 2012 he was hospitalized for two nights in New York after collapsing with what was reported to be a low blood sugar problem.

I remember enjoying his humor immensely as a young kid. He brought immeasurable happiness to people.

Blessed are those who bring laughter and joy to humanity. May he rest in peace.
