RIP: Sherman Hemsley

[Daffyfan4ever]

Something I feel like I should mention here. Forgive me if this is in the wrong forum, but I wanted to share the news that Sherman Hemsley the voice of B.P. Richfield on "Dinosaurs" has passed away. He has done a wonderful job with that for four great years and was great in all his other roles as well. May he rest in piece.

This is very sad news, and I appreciate your kind words for Sherman very much.

Someone made a comment that sums up my feelings:
"Thank you, Sherman, for the laughter you gave to so many of us for so long. Your gift will always be remembered and cherished. We will miss you."

From a bit-part character who proved to be the biggest thorn in Archie Bunker's side,
to the voice of Mr. Richfield, and all the laughs in between, you were great, Sherman.
He was one little pipsqueak who came out of his corner with both guns blazing.

Now Mr. Bentley will have George Jefferson to walk on his back again in TV Heaven.
