    I’m so sorry to hear this sad news. I’ve been watching re-runs of “Moesha” on Saturdays on the Gospel Music Channel. I was thinking when I watched how sad it was that Yvette was so sick. Well, now her suffering is over. My heartfelt prayers go out to the Wilson Family, her friends and fans.

  6. Wow…really sorry to hear this and even more sorry that she needed money for medical costs. Nobody who’s paid taxes in this country should have to go without any type of medical and dental coverage…that pisses me off to the utmost. Wasn’t she married to the guy who played the professor on Moesha?? RIP Aunt Del…SMH

  7. Dang! I was watching Ice Cube’s movie “Friday” a couple of weeks ago, and when it got to her scene with Smokey, I was wondering what Yvette Wilson was doing. She was battling cancer. R*I*P
