She was so close to getting to 100. The last Golden Girl is now gone.

God bless her. 99 years old, and still active and bringing people smiles all the way to the end. Something to which we all can aspire.

“She passed away peacefully in her home in Brentwood, California,” White’s longtime agent Jeff Witjas confirmed to The Daily Beast on Friday afternoon.

I need to process this. When I do I'll have words befitting of her I'm sure.
I'm like seriously shutting down right now. I feel mortally wounded. Been down on life and humanity lately as it was. Feel down on everything and everyone. Who's left that would be like, well, a total saint that gives us hope?
And I am not celebrating NYE....not like I felt like it anyway...
I just need some space.

How cruel life is to take her away so short of reaching 100, but at the same time 99 is a great age to live to that most will never reach. R.I.P. She was around for so many major historical events as well as the advent of broadcasting technology.

I figured she'd outlast all of us.
Welp, we're boned.

She was around for so many major historical events as well as the advent of broadcasting technology. And the silver lining is that she was living her life to the fullest all the way to the end. She still had all her faculties, as far as we knew, anyway. The woman was even planning her own 100th birthday party. As much as it sucks to lose her, we should be celebrating, not mourning.

And yet I think of the world she is leaving. We need people like her now. Yet she was one of a kind. I don't see anyone stepping up to her level. That's the rub. Like with Mister Rogers.

"Legendary" doesn't do her justice. Betty White was in a class of her own.
