Neighbor from Jeffersons Dead at 77 Franklin Cover, who played Tom Willis on "The Jeffersons", has passed away from pneumonia. The show was on for 10 years and Tom, as you remember, was a constant target of humiliation for George. He was also a part of an interracial relationship which was almost invisible on television at the time.
RIP Willis RIP Note: Smiley icon was used in error because I apparently don't understand the circles in relation to the icons when making threads. Smiley face represents my stupidity but also the years of laughter brought by the late Mr. Cover. [Edited 2/10/06 18:06pm] All good things they say never last... | |

That's sad.
I heard that he was in an "Actor's Home" in New Jersey. By St. Boogar and all the saints at the backside door of Purgatory! | |
