Everybody's favourite Golden Girl Estelle Getty dies
<< Back
1923-2008 Jul 23, 2008 at 09:21
Estelle Getty, best known for her role as grumpy, wise-cracking, cheeky old bird Sophia in the Golden Girls, has died at 84-years-old. The actor who also appeared in Tootsie, Stop! Or My Mom Will Shoot and Stuart Little, had suffered from Lewy Body Dementia for years. She got her start at the Yiddish Theatre and as a comedian in the 'Borsch Belt' of upstate New York.

She was always everybody's favourite Golden Girl. Anybody who thought that whore Blanche was their favourite is fooling themselves.

I heard that on the radio this morning and it made me sad. Thank you for being a friend Estelle.

Three things I know: 1. Sophia was awesome and has a fabulous collection of beaded handbags. 2. The Golden Girls theme is genius. 3. Estelle Getty was the bomb.

I will admit now I watched golden girls when I was a youngster.I don't know why but one reason had to be Estelle Getty.She made me crack up so much.I didn't know she had to wear make up and stuff to seem older then what she was.
