Very sad !

May he Rest in peace. I loved Lamont and Sandord and Son will always be one of my all time favorite shows.

D-Dey · 01-31-2026, 03:57 PM

Wow. I thought he was older.

So, I take it there are no cast members of the show left.

He was great as Lamont. RIP

I wish his version of The Odd Couple had begun under better circumstances.

BestTVever · 01-31-2026, 04:41 PM

He also had a great scene in All In The Family as a burglar

Howard Platt and Halroy Williams are both still alive at 87 years old and they are the only cast members left from the show

I know it's his given name, but I have never seen anything Hal Williams was in where he was credited as Halory. Demond Wilson was never credited as Grady Demond Wilson either.

Sad news. May he rest in peace.

So sad to hear about the terrible news of Mr. Wilson passing. I've always been a big fan of Mr. Wilson. It's like losing a family member. I loved him in "Sanford & Son," and I also loved him in "The New Odd Couple" that aired in the 1980s with Ron Glass. My prayers to the family, friends and fans. You will be missed. RIP
