Jerry disinherited his sons from his first marriage. He was a lousy, mean, nasty father. Sorry to bubble burst but that's the truth about Jerry Lewis. Everyone knew these stories for years. Left his first wife, Patti after a very long marriage because, as he was quoted: "When I look at her I feel old." He's the wrong guy to represent Father's Day. Also Bing Crosby.
