THANK YOU FOR BEING A FRIEND

Sad news to report. After a long battle with Lewy Body Dementia, Estelle Getty has passed away at the age of 84.

Everyone’s favourite Golden Girl died early this morning at her L.A. home surrounded by her friends and family.

Here’s hoping she’s in a better place.

    Its funny cause I caught an episode yesterday and was thinking I thought she was still alive. And she said/did something in the episode that had me laughing my ass off.

    That is sad news. I always hate to hear about older people battling dementia and memory loss problems, it’s an awful thing to go through and a bad way to spend the last of your days. She was hilarious on Golden Girls and always made me laugh. My prayers are with her family and friends.
