It's so sad! She was my favorite!

Amytime I watch Princess and the Frog, I think of her because of Charlotte!

Rue was truly one of the greats. My thoughts and prayers are with her family and friends.

Yeah, I've noticed they've died each year since '08.

I know she had had health problems recently, so this isn't really a surprise. But it's still sad.

Hope Betty lives a really long time.

I believe Betty is the youngest of them. And she has aged the best. She just seems very healthy and vibrant, almost all the time. I have a feeling we'll have her for several more years. I am glad she has had such an amazing boost to her career. I hadn't seen her in a while and then she was in Lake Placid a few years ago and from there, her career has continued to rise again. Its nice a new generation is enjoying her humor and she feels like, "everyone's grandmother". Showing you don't have to be young and have a rock hard body or drop dead looks in this business. Giving more respect for elderly actors and the elderly. I love Betty White. And I feel very bad she is the last of the Girls. My heart goes out to her, I am sure she is hurting right now.

Ironically, Betty is the oldest (1922) and Rue was the youngest (1934). I wish they all lived to be 100.

I got two texts about Rue's passing this morning, a rather lousy way to start the day. It didn't really sink in, even when I decided to watch some "Golden Girls" DVDs this afternoon. It finally sank in when I passed by the parents' bedroom and saw them reporting it on the 11:00 news.

We'll all miss you, Rue.

I admit I have never seen an episode of the Golden Girls, but from the clips that I have seen all the women had great talent, and its unfortunate to lose them.

She looked great at 76!

And yes, if Betty White passes away I WILL be sad
