I used to watch Golden Gilrls with my Grandma. I would get a snack everyday at lunch and save it to bring home to Gram and we would sit and watch Golden Girls and just laugh. She didn't laugh at too many t.v. shows but Golden Girls would have her busting her gut. Thank you Sophia for so many wonderful memories of my Grandmas laughter...you were always her favorite Girl!!!
Rest in Peace Sophia you will not be forgotten.

Thank you

The first time I saw the Golden Girls I thought it was the funniest show on tv. Estelle's role was the funniest on the show. I regularly watch the re-runs on lifetime for laughs that Estelle's character creates. She will be missed.

I never knew about The Golden Girls until I discovered the reruns which I have watched daily now for years. I was raising my kids in the 80's-90's and had no time for recreational TV. I love the show so much and Estelle was, for me, A HOOT. I don't think Lifetime has done enough to recognize Estelle's contribution to American sitcom. I work and so missed the 7/25 marathon. I would love to see a tribute involving the remaining "girls". I'll watch the website in hopes of notice.

The Golden Girls has been a significant part of my life. I remember it in the 80's when i was in high school but did not learn to appreciate the show until I started watching it as an adult years later. I never get bored watching an episode. The 4 girls have helped me laugh so many times when I needed it. Estelle was a true actress and will be missed. The one dream ive always had was to meet all 4 of the girls but that dream will now only be fantasy but that ok because I know Sophia is at peace with the angels. You will be missed. Love ya Ma!!!!!!!!!!

I loved watching her in Golden Girls. I used to write down all the funny stuff that she would say on the show to later read it to my older sister. She would have us laughing so hard. Its so sad to hear how long she lived with such a horrible illness and I'm glad she no longer has to suffer. After reading what a good person she was helping her very sick nephew it just made you love her more. We love you and know that you are now resting in peace. God bless you Estelle. Thank you for bringing happiness to all the people who watched you.

I have watched golden girls over the years and loved it betty white and bea arthur were good but it was estelle getty that made it what it was. I will miss her, and send my condolences to her family and friends in their time of sorrow, but I am sure she is at peace and making all the angels laugh . I hope they find some comfort in how loved she was and that she is at peace now, and she is making all the angels in heaven laugh.. I am sure my parents were there to greet her on the other side. she was funny and she was one of a kind, and I hope she rests peacefully. I send my sincere condolences to her family and friends.
