Like many of you, I am saddened to hear of the passing of Betty White only 17 days shy of what would have been her 100th birthday.
Despite not reaching that milestone, Betty White lived a full life with a show business career which spanned eight decades becoming a TV pioneer in the 1950's, a game show fixture in the 1960's, part of the cast of Mary Tyler Moore in the 1970's and part of The Golden Girls in the 1980's.
And yet her last decade or so might have been her best ever. After starring in that Super Bowl commercial, Betty White transcended into cultural icon with the grassroots campaign to host SNL, being cast in Hot in Cleveland and a social media superstar beloved across generations and geography.
Her passing on the final day of 2021 is a tough pill to swallow, Betty White led a good life and we got to experience it. R.I.P.
