I was never a big Jefferson's fan. But I loved him when he made appearances on All in the Family. RIP.

 

[Solarmist]

I loved the banter between Archie and George; what a comedy team! I watch the reruns almost every weeknight.

Sad, sad. I remember watching him on TV. Some of my earliest exposure to black folks.

I always did love the guy. A really good comic talent, and also a stage actor, and air force veteran.

 

[The Owl]

Great comic actor and not only that a HUGE prog-rock fan *Gentle Giant, Yes and Nektar were his 3 fave bands in that genre')


RIP Sherman you definitely moved on up to that deluxe apartment in the sky

 

[Commreman]

Loved him. Funny as hell! He has finally made it to that "deeeluxe apartment in the sky" - RIP Sherman Helmsley.

RIP, Sherman.
Most interesting memory I have of of him is when I saw him dancing to Gentle Giant on the Dinah Shore show once.
