Goodbye Sherman Hemsley
You starred as George Jefferson and Deacon Frye.
It's a known fact that you were one hell of a guy.
You and your TV wife also guest starred on Lois & Clark.
When it came to stardom, you definitely left your mark.
I loved to watch the Jeffersons when I was a boy.
Seeing you act was what millions of people enjoyed.
Sadly you've died at the age of seventy-four.
People are sad because you can't act anymore.
(Dedicated to Sherman Hemsley who passed away July 24, 2012.)
