Subject: Nathaniel Taylor Has the Big One

Written By: LyricBoy on 03/02/19 at 5:54 pm

Nathaniel Taylor, the venerated 70’s actor who portrayed the role of Rollo, best pal of Lamont, on Sanford & Son, has passed away at the age of 80 from a heart attack.  :\'(

He’s at least the third cast member to die of a heart attack, including Redd Foxx, and Whitman Mayo (who played Redd’s buddy Grady). All of which is a bit odd, because one of Redd’s bits on the show was to clutch his chest in a feigned heart attack, and exclaim “It’s the big one! I’m coming to join you, Weezy!”

It's "I'm coming, Elizabeth." Weezy was on the Jeffersons.  ;)
