Comedian and actor Richard Jeni was found dead in his West Hollywood apartment over the weekend, presumably from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
A loaded gun was reportedly found next to his body.
Jeni's biography claims that he has appeared more on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno than any other stand-up comedian, dating back to when the Tonight Show was hosted by Johnny Carson.
In 2004, Jeni was named number 57 on Comedy Central's list of the 100 greatest standups of all time.

He's a comedian who brings joy to others but couldn't bring joy to his own life. I still don't understand what would make a man take his own life.
It's so sad!
