Thank you so much for giving the history of Fred G. Sanford. What a wonderful tribute to the talented and hilarious Redd Foxx.

Incredible! Our Dad always said that Redd Foxx's real name was Sanford, so I give him credit for letting us know that, and thank you for filling in the rest of the story!

Such a wonderful tribute to his brother, a brother who in many ways showed him a brighter life, gave him reasons to smile, in spite of the parents they had.

Thank you, this was so very special for me. Especially when we talk about what I feel is the best written show in the 70's. Able to touch so many issues, making you think, and...also laugh at yourself. Thank you again, Sir.

When you showed the pic of the real Fred Sanford, I was thinking to myself "he kinda looks like the Fred Sanford on the show". No wonder LOL. Thanks!

This is amazing, this should be part of our Black History. Truly incredible story of the lives of Red Fox, Malcom X, and our culture.
