We Will Miss You, Bea Arthur
In extremely sad news, beloved actress Bea Arthur has passed away at the age of 86. Arthur is perhaps best known for her roles as Maude and, of course, as Dorothy Zbornak on Golden Girls.
According to the Associated Press, Arthur died peacefully in her sleep after a battle with cancer. "She was a brilliant and witty woman," said her personal assistant, Dan Watt. "Bea will always have a special place in my heart." In ours, too. Thank you Bea, for being a friend, and for bringing such joy and laughter to us all. You will be missed. [AP]
