Aunt Esther was an excellent actress. When I see her I start laughing. She was great in Sanford & Son. When squinted her eyes Sanford was in trouble. RIHP Wanda 🕊️🕊️🕊️
My favorite line of Aunt Esther's is when Fred thought he was dying and that he would just float away on an ice-patch like an old Eskimo, and Esther told him, "You're gonna need ice, where you're going!"🤣
Sanford and Son was hilarious.What Aunt Easter kept up with the best of them on that show.She had me falling out when she said,She had the nerve to call us witches.😂😂😂😂One of my favorite episodes.
Great comedy ,great chemistry ,loved the feuds of Fred and wanda. My entire family was a big fan of Sanford and son. Great story ,sad for her ,she was a great equal ,meaning she gave it right back .
I love this show!! I remember watching this when I was a kid. They just don't make shows like this anymore. I am truly blessed to have grown up in this time and era....
I had the honor of meeting her as a young boy, she was so sweet and I remember that day like it was yesterday, she was traveling with her church group here in Wilmington DE, she gave me an autograph, my mom didn't know where it went tho.
My uncle was on the show a few times and told me that Redd was so claustrophobia they had a lot issues on the set…. I would never think that about REDD.
I loved all the characters in the Fred Sandford show. But my favorite was Sandford and Esther. They where hilarious. 😂 One of my favorite show i loved also was Good Time and The Jefferson Show. At that time there was do many black show that i and my sister love to see together. Beautiful memory's. ❤
I had an opportunity to see, and meet her after her appearance at club in Richmond VA back in for a New years eve party in 1988, while stationed in VA. I wasn't aware of her early life as a comedian, and the nasty mouth she had. It was a very funny show! R.I.P Aunt Ester!!!
No question Redd was THE star of the show. But Lawanda was a big part of its success. And they were close friends which you wouldn’t know by watching their constant fights and mutual dislike of each other. My fave all time sitcom
Aunt Esther was a very beautiful lady in person!!!! Her and Grady and Ron Glass from Barney Miller came to our school Dr.Mary McLeod Bethune Jr. High for Black History Month in Los Angeles in the early 80's😊
CORRECTION: Her 1st husband was John Peal. He died 5 years after hey married. The photo used in this video is of UK veteran BBC radio presenter John Peel not her husband.
I doubt that was her mother. I think the creator of the video just chose random pics for the parents. If LaWanda was born in 1920, that photo which looks like is from the 60s is too modern for that to be her mother.
She was a great actress. She would have done real well as George Jefferson’s sister and having her stop over Archie Bunkers house with George and the two of them going back in forth. Or Archie new neighbor that would have been fun to watch . I wish she would have had a chance to do more parts on TV Shows
One of the funniest things I ever heard Aunt Esther say to Fred was: I’d rather kiss a snaggletooth jackass!! That made me spit nearly all of my soda out of my mouth and what I didn’t spit out of my mouth came out of my nose!!
I met Lawanda through a friend back in 1986.Went to her home number of times.She was extremely funny in person and really good looking without (what she called) "that Esther makeup" (Look at her photo at the 11:00 mark) The first time I met her was at her home right after she got hurt in a movie.She had a medical bed in the back part of her house. She started to get up from it then realizing she was only wearing a robe, stopped and said 'Oh Evan look over there (pointing at the other side of the room) I didnt see anything of special interest that way so I said "Why"? She said "Cause I aint lettin you look at MY Pu**y"! I was shocked it was so funny.Then she said "Well not before we get liguored up anyway go in there and get us a beer." Hilarious!
I miss Aunt Esther. I still watch this show daily.
It is good to know others love her, too.
She's a legend and should have a Hollywood star 🌟 if she doesn't. I was always a big fan.
💯💯💯💯

I drove her around Rochester, N.Y. where she did a show here. I still have photos with her. She was very nice.

She was a natural
You could tell that she kept her body right for years.
I'm glad that Redd Foxx got her the role of Aunt Esther because her and Redd's bantor on screen was and always be hilarious.
I love that church joke she did that was used on Above the Law’s album Legends. 😊
They’ll never be forgotten RIP to them amazing people love ❤️
"Who you calling a witch, witch"? 🤣
She was my favorite character
The funniest thing I ever heard on TV was when Fred told Esther " I'll stick your face in some dough and make some gorilla cookies."
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
That’s one of my favorite lines of all 👍🏽🤣🤣

Who you calling a witch, witch! I love that episode where Lamont was sitting back laughing his ass off.
I loved Wanda especially when she got on Donna's case lol
She once said she was blessed by mother nature, she had a dream that made many of us laugh at what she said and done in her shows.
Sandford and Son is one of the funniest show ever
She had a sit com called the Detectives- “ 🫵🏽 ole 🐠 eyed fool ” was my fav line
Never heard of the show. I will search for it. Thank you.
I enjoy her in Sanford and son

Thank you for sharing this story

Her name was LaWanda Page, not Leanda Page..
You should correct the spelling in your thumbnail and the description
Yeah, the misspelling in the description was annoying me. The whole video is sloppy.
Red Foxx was great. He was great to get her on the show. They were really good together on Sanford and Son
Legendary.
❤️ Lawanda! ‘You ole fish eyed fool…’
who u calling ugly sucka ?? fred and esther were something else I still watch the show and crack up laughing
She was so Beautiful ❤
Lawanda Page is a legend! I always loved her as Aunt Esther! She was one of the best female comedians of her time! RIP dear lady!❤❤
I loved that show
My favorite scene of LaWanda Page on Sanford son was watch it you old Bede eyes full
Her popular" fish eyed fool" was a good one :)
Esther was a beautiful woman. Is it me or anyone started to believe Pam from Martin breathe really stanked. 😅😅😅😅
We all Love aunt Ester rest in peace.
My favorite girl on Sanford and son
Good Morning R.I.P Esther One Off My Favorite Actress 😢😢😢😢😢
Watch It Sucka😂😂Timeless
My fav episode"momma's baby,poppa's maybe"
I love ❤️ her
The BEST funniest performer in that show
She did not have a sad life. She was a dancer and actress. She had a good career
No question Redd was THE star of the show. But Lawanda was a big part of its success. And they were close friends which you wouldn’t know by watching their constant fights and mutual dislike of each other. My fave all time sitcom
Aunt Esther was a very beautiful lady in person!!!! Her and Grady and Ron Glass from Barney Miller came to our school Dr.Mary McLeod Bethune Jr. High for Black History Month in Los Angeles in the early 80's😊
Yes she did...I enjoy her
Fred said a man pulled up to her and offered her some lollipops to get under his CAR
3:57 is Randolph Mantooth from the TV show" Emergency."
CORRECTION: Her 1st husband was John Peal. He died 5 years after hey married. The photo used in this video is of UK veteran BBC radio presenter John Peel not her husband.
RIP Aunt Esther❤
My favorite line in I asked her in Fred Sanford fisheye food
(Fish eye fool) she was a germ she really was a good person RIP to her an Fred
aI love it when she called Fred a fisheyed fool.
I love her walk with RuPaul
Kind woman, and decent actrees...😊
Color blind the most beautiful girl in world
Loved Aunt Esther.
@ 1:22 .......... Her MOTHER look like (WILLONA WOODS from GOOD TIMES)
I doubt that was her mother. I think the creator of the video just chose random pics for the parents. If LaWanda was born in 1920, that photo which looks like is from the 60s is too modern for that to be her mother.
She was so goood😂😂lmaooo my GOD
Wow! Aunt Esther was charming as well as fine.
I luv her Boye could she act,,,RIHEAVEN
I love Aunt Ester, she was so funny
LOL... I'm sure that's not the same John Peel that Lawanda married, because that one wasn't even born in 1934.
I loved LaWanda so much. RIHP ❤ 🙏
The pictures of John Peel are not correct.
She was a great actress. She would have done real well as George Jefferson’s sister and having her stop over Archie Bunkers house with George and the two of them going back in forth. Or Archie new neighbor that would have been fun to watch . I wish she would have had a chance to do more parts on TV Shows
coke n weed...so fn what, she's a legend
We love Lawanda!
Fred said, “ When she gets mad her bottom lips gets so big she looks like she wearing a brown turtleneck sweater”. So funny.
Pulling Up 🚗🚗🚗
One of the funniest things I ever heard Aunt Esther say to Fred was: I’d rather kiss a snaggletooth jackass!! That made me spit nearly all of my soda out of my mouth and what I didn’t spit out of my mouth came out of my nose!!
She was not married to John peel. John peel is almost 20 years younger than her
Thanks for the clarification. This video is very poorly done. I'm starting to think it's A.I. generated
Wow, her and I share a birthday
Dang!! Mom was fine!!
Aunt Esther made the show. "You fizzy headed old fool"
I love aunt Ester heffer 😅😅😅😅😅
She behave like my mom 😅😊 ❤
I met Lawanda through a friend back in 1986.Went to her home number of times.She was extremely funny in person and really good looking without (what she called) "that Esther makeup" (Look at her photo at the 11:00 mark) The first time I met her was at her home right after she got hurt in a movie.She had a medical bed in the back part of her house.

She made the show what it was
