I knew this day was coming, but that doesn't make it any easier. 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 will miss her and I'm not just saying that! I mean it. If I knew how to cry, I would shed a million tears. I'll quietly eat a piece cheesecake instead. It's what Sophia would have wanted. Rest in peace, Estelle..... Source
