OMG - I just read about her passing on CNN.com. I was suprised to see she was in her 80's.... I guess the Golden Girls were frozen in time for me.

This is really sad to hear. She was awesome as Sophia. My favorite memory of the show was when she washed her dentures in the dishwasher. There were so many more good laughs from her. She will be missed.

My hubby's best friend lived in St.Petersburg FL before he passed. I used to rely on him (when we all lived in Ohio) to fix everything for me.
Anyhow back to the sad subject. Jim used to say he just loved Sophia and said I reminded him so much of her with my wry wit, etc. also that I resembled her.
Estelle Getty had a long fruitful life, giving joy to others. She will be missed. Thank God for reruns.
