Darn, I was hoping she would make 100++

Missed it by less than three weeks: Birthdate: January 17, 1922

I hope she finds peace but I don't really remember her, heard the name sure. TV comedy was never my thing.

Very talented lady, and seemed to be a genuinely nice person. Glad we had for as long as we did!
RIP Betty, you earned your rest.

So sad. I just seen a magazine at the store that the cover says Betty White turns 100. I just heard on the radio she had some part in SpongeBob too which I didn’t know and I’m a huge fan of SpongeBob.

Weeks away from 100th birthday. I'l be mad if i make it to 99 years old but not 100.

You'd turn around in your grave?

Sorry to hear of Betty's passing. On Decemeber 25, 2021 I was admitted to the hospital. I went cold turkey to get off Morphine that I'd been on for approximately 20 years because of chronic back pain resulting from a construction accident on Jan. 11, 2000. The Dr. that had been writing my prescriptions was retiring, I went to another Dr. and he refused to write the prescriptions and sent me to a pain clinic. The Dr. at the pain clinic refused to write the prescriptions because I was on Ativan as needed for anxiety (sometimes go months without taking any) so I decided to take matters into my own hands. I guess I over did it a little and became severely dehydrated. When I got to the hospital around 11AM my blood pressure was down to about 60/40 and my kidneys were shutting down. They started pumping fluids in me at about the rate of pouring them through a fire hose and were able to save me having to go on dialysis. A day or two ago my wife and son said the Dr's told them if I hadn't came in when I did I'd probably have been dead within a couple more hours. Until you're faced with such you have no idea the impact something like this changes your perspective on life. I was dismissed from the hospital on 12/29/21. I'm still pretty weak as expected but I give 100% credit to God for my recovery. Sure the Dr's/Nurses did there part but God did the healing. Had it not been for my wife calling a church member/nurse friend of ours that morning and having her talk to me I'm sure I'd have laid here and died. I knew I was sick but I had no idea how sick. I thought it was nothing more than the vomiting and diarrhea. There are plenty of gaurdian angles watching over us every day. My wife of 30+ years and this nurse that I've known ever since she was a tiny girl are both now even more special to me than ever before. If anyone of you are ever faced with such a delima don't be stupid like I was get the correct spiritual/medical help. The devil is out to steal, kill, and destroy but my God said "NOT TODAY DEVIL".

Betty White was one of those people who seemed to be around forever, like **** Clark before his passing. I can remember her from when I was a kid and she was on Password or those kinds of game shows and that was in the early 1960's.

I understand that she swore like a sailor when not on camera which may have offended some but probably cracked up a lot of others.
She did a lot of good work with animal welfare agencies but like a lot of Hollywood types was very anti-gun but that's probably because she was part of the group think that infects so many celebrities.

Anyway, she had a long life and worked up until the end and provided a lot of laughs for many decades and I salute her for that.

I am not a big celebrity person, that is to say I don't know names. Having said that, I love Betty White, she seemed to have a kind soul.
