She was 85 years young. Bettie was the original pin-up girl...and will be greatly missed. Posted on: 12 12 08 03:42 am

I'd have figured you would quote Emily Dickinson's "Because I could stop for Death", instead. Either way, I have to agree about all of the legends dying on us. They come flame brightly if but for a moment; then, like the 'candle burning at both ends'...they fade away, leaving those of us left behind but a memory of their passing by us...

Is it really heart failure at age 92? I think his heart just ran out of beats... And I hate to break it to you guys... but we are all dying... some just take longer than the rest. To be honest, I didn't even know Bettie was still alive. I don't know about her life... but like Hisstoryman said... she entertained millions. RIP! Posted on: 15 12 08 01:59 pm
