This is sad news, Most of the cast from the "The Jeffersons" has passed away. Paul Benedict(Mr. Bently),Isabel Sanford(Louise) Roxy Roker(Helen-Lenny Kravitz's Mother),Franklin Cover(Tom),Mike Evans(The original Lionel)& of course The actress that play George's Mother was elderly back in the 1970's she died long ago. What a great show the Jeffersons was, it was ground breaking. Sherman Hemsley must feel so sad that all of his cast mates have died.

Roxy Roker(Helen-Lenny Kravitz's Mother)not only played a role of being married to a cauc., she actually was in real life. I remember Bently walking on Mr. J's back. May God bless him. May he RIP! I'm pretty sure Florence (Marla Gibbs) is still alive and kicking.
