Richard Lewis' death made Larry David 'sob' as celebs mourn 'brilliantly funny' comedian

Larry David, Cheryl Hines, Jamie Lee Curtis, Albert Brooks, Ringo Starr and other celebrities are mourning the death of comedian Richard Lewis. Lewis died at the age of 76.

"Richard and I were born three days apart in the same hospital and for most of my life he’s been like a brother to me," the "Seinfeld" co-creator said. "He had that rare combination of being the funniest person and also the sweetest. But today he made me sob, and for that I’ll never forgive him." A post shared by Jamie Lee Curtis (@jamieleecurtis)

Cheryl Hines, who also co-starred on "Curb Your Enthusiasm," told Fox News Digital having known Lewis was a "true gift."
