“Tribute to Love and Laughter: A Memorial to Jesse Aragon,” in the memory of the actor-comedian who was killed last week while riding his motorcycle, will take place tonight at 7 at the Improvisation in West Hollywood. Among those remembering Aragon, who appeared in “Colors” and “Hollywood Shuffle” and did much comedy club work, will be “Shuffle” director Robert Townsend, comedian Paul Rodrigues and other comedians. Aragon died Tuesday from injuries suffered when he was hit by an 18-wheel tractor-trailer on the Long Beach Freeway. He was 32. Donations, which will be used to pay Aragon’s funeral expenses, will be accepted at the door.
