Phyliss Diller died today, she was 95.
I did not know that she was a trained classical pianist.

Another legend gone. All the good ones are aging and leaving us. She had a fullfilling life.

I agree Janet all the good ones are leaving us. But on the other hand, she just got a wonderful knew gig. RIP Phyllis you will be greatly missed!

Me, too, Heather. I remember once on an interview she said that she had had so many face lifts that she didn't think God would recognize her.
She was funny, and that laugh.

Yes, she was a very funny comedian, one that we could laugh with. She came out with some good ones. They say she died with a smile on her face. I am sure she is keeping everyone in stitches up there in heaven.

Yes i remember her she was so funny . That's why she lived such a long life. She was not a serious stressed out person . She was full of laughter and humor. Which makes a happy person.

She was really funny and could laugh at herself which is what I loved about her. My father was a symphony conductor and knew her because of her beautiful talent at the piano. She did a guest appearance once at one of his concerts. She was a lovely lady and Will be misssed.
