Seriously? OMG! WTF?

Dixie Carter passed away yesterday at the age of 70. Her husband of nearly 26 years, Hal Holbrook posted this message on Dixie Carter’s website, “”This has been a terrible blow to our family. We would appreciate everyone understanding that this is a private family tragedy. Thank you.”
Dixie Carter will always be part of a TV history for her role as the very vocal Julia Sugarbaker on Designing Women. I first got to know her as Mr. Drummond’s wife on the Different Strokes and from that time on her acting always left an impression on me. She will definitely be missed by many for the incredible actress she was and she will live on because of the roles she made memorable.
On a side note when I moved to Atlanta I was hoping to find women like the ones that were portrayed on Designing Women and I sadly never found any one like them. It was a different story when I moved to Miami because there I found a lot of women like the ones on The Golden Girls.
