Thank you for being a Friend
My husband told me he heard on the radio this morning that Estelle Getty died. I remember her best as Sophia from Golden Girls. I had heard that she was not doing to well these last few years having dementia. It makes me want to curl up on the couch and watch a marathon of Golden Girls. I technically could too because I bought my mother the first season! I am sure Lifetime is probably going to do something to. Sophia was one of my favorite characters, partly because I thought she looked like my Grandma–the one I referred to as the Grandma with wrinkles. The show was a good show. When I was younger, I really didn’t know that Blanche was “friendly” with the men, but I did understand Rose wasn’t the sharpest tool in the shed! This is one show I want on DVD and also Little House on the Prairie. That show caused me to ask my mom if when she was younger road in buggy or if she had slate and chalk for school and not paper. But my thoughts and prayers are with her family.
