Actress Estelle Getty, who played the sarcastic matriarch on the 1980's hit NBC sit-com The Golden Girls has passed away.
Playing the role of Sophia along side Bea Arthur's Dorothy, Betty White's Rose and Rue McClanahan's Blanche, Getty easily became the fan favourite with her quick one-liners.
Getty, whose character was actually 20 years her senior, suffered from advanced dementia and died at about 5:30 a.m. July 22 at her Hollywood Boulevard home. She was 84.
