Linda Lavin
For nine seasons she was Alice, the widowed waitress slinging hash at Mel’s Diner and singing her own theme song, because CBS wasn’t about to pay somebody else to do it. She won a Tony for Broadway Bound and was still working at 87, filming a Hulu series when a lung cancer nobody knew about showed up uninvited. Flo would want us to say it: she finally kissed her grits goodbye.
