The White House is remembering Jerry Lewis as a man who ``kept us all laughing for over half a century'' and touched the lives of millions with his charity work.
The 91-year-old Lewis died yesterday in Las Vegas.
Besides his movie and T-V work, he was closely identified with the annual telethon to raise money for muscular dystrophy research.
White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders says Lewis ``lived the American dream.''
