On a personal note.
My heart is saddened at the news of Betty White’s passing. She brought such joy to me with her devilish grin, wicked sense of humor and what seemed to be a pure heart. I was reading an article and Ryan Reynolds summed up her passing so very well… “”The world looks different now, she was great at defying expectation. She managed to grow very old and somehow, not old enough. We’ll miss you, Betty. Now you know the secret.”
Rest in Peace Betty.
