Betty White has passed
99...man, that'll make ya' think, eh? You just never know.

I wonder what she died of...

Kidding aside, loved Betty White. Watching her with my mom in my younger years, it's possible she was one of the first actors to make me laugh. Good memories. RIP.

I always thought it would be a helluva treat to sit down and have a cup of coffee with her. Ms. White will be sorely missed. She came from an era when comedy was FUNNY. Now, save for VERY few shows...not so much.

RIP, Ms. White... Frown

What a heartbreaking loss. She was a constant reminder of a different era that we will never recapture.

She could spoof her squeaky clean image hilariously, too. Her Bluffin Muffin sketch on SNL (when it was still funny) is classic.

Betty White is an immortal. If she died, then the end of the world is surely at hand.

I saw her during password and later on. On tv, they were showing pictures of her even earlier than password. She was quite a looker plus she can also sing.

RIP



"It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946.

She wasn’t quite 100. Her birthday was coming up on Jan 17.

Sad to hear of her passing.

years ago there was a lady who attended my church.

Elizabeth was at least 65 years old but always was perfectly adorned, bejeweled, coiffed, dressed, and made up. I doubt I ever saw her with a hair out of place. Whenever I saw her, my mind would say “Betty White!”

Lord, bring Betty White into your embrace. She certainly merits it.

And while you are at it, hug Elizabeth and my mother, Betty.

Anyways R.I.P. Betty White.

My wife was talking about that this morning. My wife thought it seemed risky to be talking about someone turning 100 before it actually happens.

RIP Betty White.

Thanks for the memories.

RIP Betty. Too many today weren't aware of your talent and the world is in desperate need of your smile / comedy.

She was super cool, and really funny. Loved her in the Golden Girls. They’re all gone now. Frown

RIP Betty.

She was so funny on the MTM show playing the hyper-critical, hyper-sexual Sue Ann Nivens. She is now the fourth cast member to die in 2021. RIP, Betty.

Betty White had more class in her little finger than most of today's Hollywood all put together.

Thanks for the memories, Betty. Rest easy, and have another Snickers bar.
