As a child, he really made me laugh, not so much as an adult, but his humor was always clean and he never needed to lower himself to make an audience laugh.

Q PATRIOT!!!

When I was a kid, I passed papers. My employer was the Dayton Daily News, and I was dragging down anywhere from $6-8/week-- SERIOUS money in those days for a 10-year-old kid! Mom and Dad convinced me to open a savings account as a place to store my fortune. After they applied for a received a SSN for me (it wasn't mandatory at birth then), Mom and I rode the bus downtown to the Winters National Bank main office and opened my first bank account.

Jonathan Winters' uncle or grandpa or somebody in his lineage was a BIG TIME investor and financier, and formed the Winters National Bank in the Dayton/Springfield market. These days it's been absorbed into JP Morgan Chase.

I remember as a kid seeing the big white house where Jonathan was raised by his aunt or granny, not sure which. VERY ritzy.

He was a funny man, and a humble one. I'll miss him.
