BERNNADETTE STANIS REMEMBERS HER FONDEST MEMORY OF JA'NET DUBOIS
If there's anything that BernNadette Stanis will remember of her good friend, it's her dedication and her positive outlook on everything. Aside from acknowledging the many memories they had on 'Good Times,' she said her fondest memory was when she found Ja'Net writing a song.
"There were many, but one was when she was writing a song, and I went to her and asked what she was doing, and she said 'I'm writing a song [...] for 'The Jeffersons."
