Isabel Sanford who played Weezy Jefferson on the Jeffersons has died. :frowning:

Should be Weezy Jefferson.

That is a crying shame! She was a truly talented and funny lady. I remember her holding her own against formidable talents the likes of Sherman Hemsley, Carroll O'Connor and Jean Stapleton. She did so with grace and finesse, with a naughty twinkle in her eye.

Another TV legend gone. May she rest in peace.

"Weezie" had a long, productive life. The recent Old Navy commercial featured just a fleeting glimpse of her - I wondered why. RIP

I just found out she was almost 20 years older than Sherman Helmsley.

 

[Henry Gale]

Her first role was in Guess Who's Coming to Dinner? (1967) as, of course, the maid.
