Sherman Hemsley was a well-known actor from the 1970s. Most notably, he played George Jefferson on the television shows All in the Family and The Jeffersons. He was born to Arsena Chisolm and William Thornton. Thornton was married to another woman, and Hemsley never had a relationship with his father or his father’s side of the family. Hemsley never married and had no children. He lived with Flora Bernal, his business manager. Diagnosed with cancer, Hemsley executed a will naming Bernal the sole beneficiary of his estate. At the signing, Hemsley indicated that he knew he was executing his will and that he had deliberately chosen Bernal, but he did not discuss his relatives or the nature of his property with his attorney or the witnesses. After his death, the Thorntons challenged the will. Was Hemsley of sound mind? Discuss. [In re Estate of Hemsley, 460 S.W.3d 629 (Tex.App.—El Paso 2014)] (See Wills.)
