"A legend. An icon. Funny until the end!," Niecy Nash wrote in an Instagram post featuring a photo of her and Betty together. "We were in the movie The Proposal together and worked on neighbouring stages when she filmed Hot In Cleveland and I was on The Soul Man. I would be lucky to have a career this long and still have comedic timing! Make em laugh in heaven Betty! You will be missed. Thank YOU for being a friend 😉 #rip."
