I'm so sad. I miss her already. There is no one who was as funny as Joan. Fashion Police was a weekly bright spot for me- I'm so sad. Blessings to her family-

So sad here also. It feels like we lost a friend. I got her autograph in 1980 when I was only 20. She was with David Brenner at Westbury Music Fair on Long Island and had just written "Having a Baby Can be a Scream". After the show I waited and she signed autographs for every single person that wanted one regardless of whether they had a book or not. When she got to me she smiled and said I was the youngest person that had waited for her. Twenty years later at a Broadway show with my two daughters, we were sitting behind her and during intermission she turned around and said how nice it was that I was taking my girls to a show and that they were so well behaved. I told her that I had an autograph from 20 yrs previous and she said "I knew we were friends!!" Too funny, she was so sweet and kind in person, really made my day.....twice. She will be missed.

I feel like I lost yet another mother. Joan is the only reason why I started watching QVC in the first place. I would watch anything and everything she did. I am sick about this. This should not have happened. I feel like someone is going to say its not real, that she isnt really gone. I feel more guilty for looking up to Melissa for her strength and encouragement. This really just stinks.

I am heartbroken. Joan was such a trailblazer as a female comedian and also in later years as a fashion and jewelry maven. I just loved her and her clothes and jewelry. Prayers to Melissa and Cooper and to all who loved her. She is up there with Robin Williams entertaining the angels.

Agree-she succeeded in many arenas in life, a real pioneer for women. The stories of her kindness are flooding the Internet--what people remember about you is truly your legacy. Joan's legacy is full of riches. Happy memories--watch her clips front he Tonight Show and enjoy those memories--that is a great tribute to Joan Rivers.
