Her daughter (My aunt Loana) &amp; I                             were with her. She is the one who helped raise me &amp; taught                             me to be the funny man I am today. Gma Jewell was                             the inspiration for my &#8216;Gma Beulah&#8217; character.

Words can&#8217;t begin to say &#8220;Thank you&#8221; enough                             for the outpouring of love &amp; support during this                             difficult time in my life as well as the rest of                             my family. Here&#8217;s one of my favorite photos of she &amp; I                             together for a photo shoot for a TV pilot that that                             I made a couple of years ago.
