Sad to hear this news. Wonder how many folks might have thought she was already dead.

Bea was an incredibly talented woman. She was also extremely funny. She was one hell of a lady, and I am sad to read that she has passed on. The Golden Girls is my all time favorite show, and I am thankful to be able to watch it to always remind me of the brilliant talent of all the ladies on that show. It's so sad that both Estelle Getty and Bea Arthur are gone. Yes, they had a great run, but, it's still very sad. Thank you for being a friend, Bea. Rest In Peace.

In tribute to the character of Dorothy:

Truby (Guest Star Debbie Reynolds): My husband recently passed.

Rose: Passed what?

Dorothy: A slow moving Winnebago, Rose!

Possibly the best comic actress the world had ever seen. For me, no one surpassed her impeccable timing. Her dry wit has brought many a smile to my face over the years. You had one helluva great run, Bea.

Sad to hear about her passing. She had a really long life and long career. I think she will always been known to me as Dorothy from the Golden Girls.

This is very sad news. I grew up watching Maude and The Golden Girls in syndication. She's a large part of my childhood. I have all The Golden Girls DVDs and it's just such a hilarious show. Maude was absolutely hilarious and I can watch both shows over and over again. Bea was one of the best comedic actresses TV has ever seen.

RIP Bea Arthur

Another great Bea moment, courtesy of her cameo in History of the World: Part I,

Occupation?
Stand-up philosopher.
What?
Stand-up philosopher. I coalesce the vapors of human experience into a viable and meaningful comprehension.
Oh, a bullshit artist! Did you bullshit last week?
No.
Did you try to bullshit last week?
Yes!

:lol:

She was a class act and as a regular on the dais for many, many roasts she was always a great sport for the jokes at her expense -- and she certainly gave it back too! :D

:rip: Bea Arthur, you will be missed

The reading was awesome, but Bea's simple "What the Fuck is this shit?" looks over towards Pam are what makes that video Golden.
