I feel bad that I know next to nothing about her except that she almost played Ursula in The Little Mermaid, but was difficult to work with.

Rest in peace.

Divinity, I think this performance sums up so much of who she was: http://youtu.be/--u0kxITaBU

Btw, she was also almost Dorothy in The Golden Girls, too!

She was an amazing actress, adored her British comedy series Two's Company. She was difficult to work with but she was a genius performer, no matter what she was given she made it a memorable performance. I knew she hadn't been well following a series of falls the last couple years but still can't believe she's gone.
