I think everybody loved her. I confess I'm a Golden Girls fan. I watched it with my Grandfather when I was a kid. Rest in peace Betty, you've earned it. Thank you, for being a friend!
I saw this news last night and was saddened by it for sure. I have always liked her. Frankly, I know of no one who didn't. Netflix has a nice documentary on her. I knew she was a pioneer in many ways, I just didn't know how much. She used to do a 5-hour "live" show every day in the early days of TV. And by "do" I mean act, sing, dance, produce, direct, interview - you name it. And she loved it.
