RIP Famous Former Neighbor Betty White

Online newspaper editors have been sitting on prepared obituaries for part-time Rancho Santa Fe resident Betty White, who just passed away at age 99, for as long as there's been an "online." The Reader has been singing her praises all along, from the time she was named America’s Favorite and Most Trusted Personality through her appearance at the fourth annual Petco Foundation Hope Gala to accept the first Betty White Humanitarian Award, named after her by the non-profit organization Actors and Others for Animals.

Former San Diegan Patrick McCray honed his comic book scriptwriting chops while working on titles like Rock 'N' Roll Comics for Hillcrest publisher Revolutionary Comics. One of his more recent biographical comics illustrated White's life and career.
