I always get emotional when that part comes on... she was trying to be so strong.... dang.... James died.
Sidenote: I read that James... uh... I mean John Amos... said that they fired him over the phone for being too controversial.
Here's a pic at Ester Role's wake:

She was trying to hold it up, I'm the same way, when someone close to me dies I don't like people hugging me like that either because I don't like breaking down in front of people.
I'm glad you posted that pic...........wow, they pretty much all look the same. Thelma doesn't look like she did anything but dyed her hair, she still looks exactly the same as she did on the show.
James was too "controversal"........PAAAALEASE! They wanted to make that show fatherless from the very beginning, but Florida/Esther Rolle wasn't having it and threatened not to do the show unless there was a father in the house. If that were the case the militant midget was the controversal one........LOL.
