She wrote back to me 1-2 years ago. As a Mary Tyler Moore fan this is a hard one, and that show's taken a lot of hits recently. And it had a good rate of people still with us before.
Probably one of the best sidekick characters of all time.
I think Julie Kavner is the last survivor of the Rhoda cast, no? Also creepy is that she was on the Celebrity Ghost Stories show, and LOTS of people who were on that are passed away (Roddy Piper is one, for instance).
I'll end by saying what Val said..."Mary was who you wanted to be. Rhoda was who you probably were...". Well, some of us wanted to be Rhoda too, tyvm.

RIP
I remember she had been battling cancer for a while, at least 10 years, since her Dancing with the Stars appearance. It's surprising to think 80 years old as kinda young. I never watched Mary Tyler Moor Show so I only really know her from her one season of Valerie that eventually became Hogan Family.

I'm stunned;-) Having learned about that mess makes me GLAD Warner Bros. buried Lorimar so savagely.

And I bet when she got to the pearly gates it wasn't Saint Peter waiting for her, but instead it was Carlton: your doorman. Seriously though she will be missed.

Loved her on MTM and Rhoda. Watched them all the time when they were on Nick at Nite. RIP

She was given a short life expectancy, when she was first diagnosed with cancer. That was years ago. Now, she's resting.
