R.I.P Bea Arthur

Whether Dorothy was your favorite Golden Girl or not I think we can all admit to the soft, Bea Arthur sized spot in our hearts.
Saturday my girlfriends and I went to a drag show and it was really touching to see what kind of influence Bea had on those girls, especially the older generation.

"I knew it would hurt, I just didn't know it would hurt this much. I'm so happy that she received her Lifetime Achievement Award while she was still with us, so she could appreciate that," Betty White told "The Insider" in a statement. "She was such a big part of my life."

Rue McClanahan, the only other remaining "Golden Girl," said: "[Thirty-seven] years ago she showed me how to be very brave in playing comedy. I'll miss that courage. And I'll miss that voice."
