Goodbye, Bea Arthur!

I'm sorry I was convinced for most of my life you were a man.

It was those tunics!

I was sure you were hiding a penis! And of course that voice.

86. Not bad.

I remember you reading from Pamela Anderson's "novel" at her roast. You were great.

I remember Rufus Wainwright putting you in a song as his "new grandma" lol.

Everybody loved you.

Adrienne Barbeau had nothing on you with those big tits.

I never got into Golden Girls but most of my friends did so thanks for that too.

You helped transgender people everywhere without being transgender.

Because you were parturient, so obviously a gg (genetic girl).

So thanks for taking that brunt on your broad, masculine shoulders.

You were funny and a good actress.

Hollywood missed out by not using you more.

It was their loss.

You would think Woody Allen at least would have seen the potential.

Oh well.

No second chances.

Ave et Vale!

You're right. She would have been a wonderful foil for Woody--an older Julie Kavner, a funny Tony Roberts.

I watched and enjoyed several episodes of Golden Girls, but I wasn't an avid follower of the show either.

Arthur will always be Maude to me.

Hey Joe!

Glad to hear the love for her out there!

I hope she knows or knew!
