Instagram: Howard Lapides. Love you sir. Rest in peace. This has been an incredibly tough week. Those of you who loved my TV show may have never seen it had it not been for this man. Howard Lapides understood comedy better than anyone. He saw my show in Canada when I was on public access TV and he sold it to MTV. Without Howard Lapides I would have never been on MTV. I just received this news tonight so I am flabbergasted and in shock. Howard and I both worked together with John Ferriter who also passed this week. Both of these men have been such supporters of me throughout my carreer. From the very start until now. Both of these men I count as two of my best friends in the world. So it is with great sadness that I report their passing. Howard I love you sir. John I love you. Please rest in peace.

I feel fortunate to have been performing @yukyuksottawa tonight when I recieved this news. It is a place that Howard loved. Rest in peace my friends. Thank you for changing my life and letting me live my dream. #Comedy #Love Image Images, Instagram
