Wow, what a surprise. I didn't know she was battling leukemia. R.I.P.

Oh that's a shame she was a real class act. I haven't seen her in a long time but I remember always enjoying her work. My deepest condolences to her family.

She was very classy. I did not know of her battle. It was kept out of the public eye which is good.

May this wondeful woman RIP.

You inspired me, made me laugh, made me cry, made me think and helped to teach me to dream.

I knew she was ill...but I didn't realize how ill. This death makes me very, very sad.

Thanks, Jill! You always gave it your all; you taught us by example, you were passionate and funny and damned good. You should've won the Academy Award...

Godspeed, and my best to her family.

Best-
