Watch Out God! Here comes Sophia!
Goodbye, Estelle, you wonderful golden girl, you. Thank you for so many, many laughs and happy times. You're a class act, lady. No one will ever be able to fill those little, bitty shoes. We'll miss you.
July 25, 1923 - July 22, 2008
Words of wisdom from Sophia Patrillo:
"Picture it: Sicily."
"I hate Jell-O. If God wanted peaches suspended in midair, he would have filled them with helium."
"Why do blessings wear disguises? If I were a blessing, I'd run around naked."
"My God, I've left brain cells all over the Eastern Seaboard."
"If I met a man who was over seventy but still looked half-way decent, I'd be on my back faster than you could say, 'I've fallen and I can't get up!' "
"Some people like girls instead of boys... others like dogs instead of cats. Personally, I'd rather live with a lesbian than a cat... unless a lesbian sheds, that I don't know."

Thank you for your post and honor to this wonderful actress. Golden Girls has got to be one of the best programs ever and I still love to watch the reruns.
