Rest in peace, Estelle.
Here are some of my favorite Sophia quotes:
"There's just something I don't like about him. I can't put my finger on it, but if I did, I would have to wash it."
"There's just something I don't like about him. I can't put my finger on it, but if I did, I would have to wash it."
"Sophia: And don't forget the accident you had in that car.
Stan: What accident?
Sophia: I'll give you a hint: it costs me ten bucks every Christmas, and still calls me grandma."
"Dorothy: Ma, where have you been?
Sophia: I always believe that when you're in a hospital, you should go around and cheer the other patients up.
Dorothy: Oh Ma, that's so nice.
Sophia: Yeah, so I went upstairs to Geriatrics and sang 'Anything You Can Do, I Can Do Better'."

Adam just came home from work and the first thing I said to him(in a sad voice because I am sad) was "Guess who died today?" and he looked at my all concerned "Who?" and I said "Sophia from the Golden Girls". He paused for a second and said "Shit, Megan, you scared me. I thought it was someone we knew"
I don't think he appreciates the Girls like I do.

Oh no! I hadn't heard that!
I LOVED the Golden Girls and Sophia was my favorite, too!
Awwwww...I hadn't heard this yet either. :( I'll miss Sophia...but she was REALLY old.
Maybe you could name your next cat Sohia.
Oh man, I didn't know that! Thanks for being the bearer of bad news! (jk) I loveeed watching Golden Girls! Your husband's comment was funny!
Wow! You really DO love you some Golden Girls. Quotes and everything! Thanks for stopping by my blog . . . yes, I am in RI! This blogosphere is insane, you never know who you'll bump into!
PS How sad about Estelle Getty. She was hilarious. Totally the hit of the show.
Somebody called me to tell me. I was watching the Golden Girls just this morning!
I just wanted to let everyone know that even though I do love the Golden Girls and not afraid to say , I don't have posters of them hanging on my walls. I will be okay.
Oh Sophia! I, too, saw this. On Yahoo's homepage, I believe. Anyway. Sad day. :*(
Are you sure you don't have Golden Girl posters on your wall Meg?! I used to watch them too when I was a teenager and they all were incredibly funny.
Thanks for stopping by my blog!
I saw that yesterday, and was very sad to hear of her passing. Sophia was my favorite as well. Who could not love her - she had all the great zingers?
Funny, I started to watch because of my dad, too. But when I was alone in my dorm room in college, I was still watching.:)
Thanks for stopping by my blog!
Meg,
Just in case that scrapbooking bug gets ya, I go to the Friday Night crops sometimes at this great store in N. Attleboro (just north of Providence): Right at Home.
Take care,
Amy
She was funny, wasn't she? That couch always makes me chuckle, too...it was so 80's Tropical...but I still love it, loved the whole GG home, it felt like home whenever you watched them gather around the kitchen table:)
Nice to meet you :)
