LIONEL of The Jeffersons is DEAD AT 57 (Mike Evans) - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Big3sCompanyFan · 12-22-2006, 08:56 AM

I'm shocked no one posted this yet. I just heard this on ABC radio that actor Michael Evans, who acted in All In The Family and The Jeffersons, died of throat cancer at 57!!

UNREAL! He's not even that old and the guy who played his dad (Sherman Helmsley) is doing fine.

Does anyone have a pic of what he looked like recently or even in the last 10 years??

Cancer doesn't give a sh*t how old you are. Age is nothing but a number to that bitch Cancer.

Sad....he was really funny as Archie's rival, Lionel Jefferson.
