Betty White, an animals best friend. Rest In Peace.

I’ve done my share, and more, of animal rescue, so it is with the most profound reverence I say goodbye to Ms White.

So all dog do go to heaven

Spot on, Mr. Jones-

Can’t get past all the dogs and cats…

“Thank you for being a friend…”

I will miss her smiling face. What a Lady.

I watched Betty from the time I was a kid and she was a refreshing, funny, lovable woman! RIP Betty, we will miss you!

This is so sweet!

She was also was the best donors for otter conservation and health in the U.S.

And more than a few cats, I’m sure…

Maybe the best “editorial” salute to Betty White……

A full life of class and enjoyment for all of us. One of the best.

My first “exposure” to Betty White was watching her show, “Life with Elizabeth”, where the tagline at the end of every show was the announcer asking the character White played the question, “Aren’t you ashamed?” and White shaking her head “no” as she grinned.

This was on a green-screened Hoffman television in the early ‘50s which had a continuous tuner just like a radio – the screen was supposed to be “easier on the eyes”, I think. The continuous tuner was a pain ’cause it wouldn’t stay locked on the channel, but would slowly ‘drift’ to between-channel snow.

By the way, this was about the same time that my grandmother’s Southern Baptist preacher assured me that, “Of course animals can’t go to Heaven – they have no Souls!” thereby thrusting me into the first steps toward atheism. I should have asked him at the time how it was that the Lion and Lamb he was always going on about managed to sneak in – but I was already under too much scrutiny for asking too many “hard” questions, so I didn’t.

Bless Betty White, and everyone who rescues animals.

Most excellent Clay — Betty would be thrilled ♥

she is smiling down on the comic today. on World News Tonight they said that America Hmane is seeing a overflow of donation made in her name. i made a donation myself today.
