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

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. Marly

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.

I totally agree, Dorinda. Laughter is the best medicine. Marly

I saw that yesterday and felt sad. Remember watching her with my parents and grandparents. 95 is a good, long life...bless her heart.

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.
