She took me to an event and introduced me to Rosa Parks. I also met and shared many drinks with Evel Kenevil at a place called "The Slot Joint" that was on the strip back in the day. I met Redd Foxx at a Hearns-Hagler Championship fight at the MGM Grand. I was walking out of the Mensroom, saw Redd, said hi and stuck out my hand. Redd said "No,no,no,no,no... I ain't gonna shake the hand that just shook Peter" !. 😂😂😂

My girlfriend and I struck up a conversation at the bar with a delightful lady while Redd was performing in the adjacent showroom. She asked us if we wanted to meet her dad. I said "Well why?" She said: " because he's performing on stage right now in the showroom". We were just floored finding out this was Redd's daughter! She took us to his dressing room after the show where we had a nice conversation with him complete with autographs, pictures and souvenirs. Rodney (Dangerfield) was even with us cracking jokes with Redd about us being from the "cold country" (Eau Claire, WI). What a nice gesture. Her last name was Sanford but I 'm embarrassed to say I can't remember her first name. Does anyone know if she's still alive?

My favorite put down by Fred was, “Esther, you’re so ugly we press your face in dough & make GORILLA cookies!”

Glad to hear that Aunt Esther's husband Woodrow is still alive. Also "Smitty and Hoppy", the two police officers who frequented Fred and Lamont's home, are both still with us as well.

Concerning the quad memorial stone, i assumed it was a shared stone placed in the center of four graves, arranged two wide and two long. The quadrant on the stone corresponded to the position of each grave. In Las Vegas, I have visited the grave of boxer Charles "Sonny" Liston. Would like to visit the final resting place of bandleader/trumpet player Harry James.

"Watch it sucker !" "This is the big one !" What great lines. What great times they all gave us, like you Mr. G by giving us your sensitive grave tours. Where does the time go?

It would be great if you could do the cast of the Amos n Andy Show from the early 1950s. The actors were so talented and portrayed the characters perfectly. Tim Moore, Spencer Williams, Ernestine Wade, Amanda & Lillian Randolph, Johnny Lee, Nick Stewart, Alvin Childress, Jester Hairston and all of the supporting actors were so good and professional. I grew up watching Amos n Andy, and in my 70s now, I still enjoy and laugh at the episodes. These were the cast of characters who I would have enjoyed meeting and knowing in real life. They were a part of the Golden Age of Television who deserve to be remembered in one of your episodes....

Hi Code, I did my Amos and Andy Vlog at the beginning of this year. If you search on my channel you’ll find it and can watch it. Thanks for sharing with us 😊👍

Amos and Andy isn't looked back on too fondly by A lot of people but it was in essence the first black sitcom ever and paved the way for every black sitcom after it so for that It deserves respect.
