RIP - Mrs. Patrillo

Oh, today is a sad, sad day - so sad in fact that you won't even be getting any Bubbatunes. Instead I have to tell you all that Estelle Getty has died. Sophia Petrillo has headed to the big lanai in the sky to eat cheesecake with Jesus - or something like that.

Estelle Getty passed away this morning at her home in Los Angeles. She was 84. Estelle was surrounded by her family and friends when she went away. She suffered from Lewy Body Dementia for years.

I frickin' love the Golden Girls, and Sophia is one of the best characters ever to be on the little screen, so in her memory here's some clips from The Best Of Sophia - season 1 - and tonight I'm buying a cheesecake and watching some Golden Girls DVDs.

Rest In Peace - Estelle and thank you for being a friend.
