"Golden Girl" Estelle Getty has gone to the big lanai in the sky and died at the age of 84.

Estelle passed away at 5:35 AM this morning at her L.A. home surrounded by her family and caregivers. Getty had been suffering for years with Lewy Body Dementia.

Although only a year older than Bea Arthur, Estelle is best known for playing her wise-cracking Sicilian mother Sophia Petrillo on "The Golden Girls."

Getty is survived by her two adult sons

That's all I have to say. I LOVE the GG and while this isn't completely unexpected, it's sad nonetheless.

Jason, thank YOU for being a friend, Sophia...
