No in memory of patrice o'neal?

I thought at the end there should have been a screen saying In Memory of Patrice O'Neal.

They probably didn't do that because Patrice wasn't a regular at the roasts. Correct me if I'm wrong but I think the only one he was at was Charlie Sheen's. Whereas Greg Giraldo, who they did do that for, was at almost all of them.

He was Heidi Klum's translator at Jeff Foxworthy's roast.

I guess it would have been appropriate given that it was his last appearance on TV before his death. However, Giraldo appeared on every single roast before his death (except for the Denis Leary roast), while Patrice had only appeared at the Charlie Sheen roast. I'm sure that's the reason why Giraldo had a show dedicated to him but not Patrice.
