JoeySanJoaquin Posted November 3, 2012 Report Share Posted November 3, 2012 Nelson, Frank: Stalwart character actor, perhaps best known from recurring appearances with Jack Benny. For Lucy fans, appeared several times over the years in different roles, most notably as radio show host Freddie Fillmore, a train conductor ("The Great Train Robbery", ILL and "Lucy Goes to the White House", TLS) and in the last ILL "Connecticut" episodes, as neighbor Ralph Ramsey.
