    Mr. Witherspoon made me laugh even when things weren't going well in my personal life. He was one of those people who could bring laughter to my heart no matter what hardship I was going through. He was the epitome of what comedy was all about. He will be sorely missed, by all of us who have ever watched him on TV or in person. Rest in peace Mr. Witherspoon, and thank you for being so funny, and good at your craft.......
