15 Of Our Favorite 'El Risitas' Memes Honoring The Late Comedian And Face Of 'KEKW'

Yesterday, Juan Joya Borja, better known by his stage name "El Risitas," tragically passed away at the age of 65. Many of us grew up with his smiling face to illuminate the better years of our lives, and he was a particularly influential figure and meme in his home country of Spain and other Spanish-speaking countries. To the English-speaking community, he was known primarily as Spanish Laughing Guy or as the face of the KEKW emote on Twitch. As a comedian, he devoted his life to making us laugh, and he continues to do so even though he's no longer with us. These are some of our favorite memes to remember him by.
