Estelle Getty has passed away

Have just heard from some friends that The Golden Girls star Estelle Getty has passed away at age 84.

The Golden Girls was one of the best shows of the Eighties, and Getty's Sophia Petrillo was the best reason to watch it. I was a kid when that show ran and she always cracked me up.

Don't know of anything else to add, but I'll close this post out with a classic Sophia bit...

"Picture it: Sicily, Nineteen Forty-Two."
