The sad news of Estelle Getty didn't find me until last nights news cast. She died yesterday morning. I was in a state of shock but not as bad as George Carlin. I guess because I was aware of her fight with dementia. This is still saddening news to hear. I loved watching her on Golden Girls as Sophia. Come on now, how could you not love her wise cracks and wild schemes? Not to mention her role in Mannequin. It just seems all my favorite stars are dieing off now. Probably because quite a few are older stars, but still. They're just dropping.
