I loved Estelle Getty. She was one funny lady on The Golden Girls. It is still an all time favorite of my family. She will be greatly missed in the entertainment world.

I loved The Golden Girls--Sophia reminded me so much of my late mother in law, very quick-witted and sassy. May they both rest in peace!
