'May her spirit soar': Celebrities, fans pay tribute to Hollywood icon Doris Day
Hollywood lost one of its brightest stars, Doris Day, on Monday morning, who died from pneumonia. Now, fellow celebrities and fans alike are reacting to the news of the 97-year-old’s death, and calling on people to remember the greatness of the legendary actress and singer.
“I like joy; I want to be joyous; I want to have fun on the set; I want to wear beautiful clothes and look pretty. I want to smile, and I want to make people laugh. And that's all I want. I like it. I like being happy. I want to make others happy”
RIP Doris Day. pic.twitter.com/MnHW4sjuzF— Nina Garcia (@ninagarcia) May 13, 2019
For those of us in my generation, Doris Day was synonymous with Hollywood icon. She would no doubt remind us, upon this day of her passing, “Que sera sera,” but we will miss her dearly anyway. Rest now in our hearts forever, Ms. Day.

This morning I was saddened to learn that Doris Day who starred in a film I had written "The Thrill Of It All" had passed away at 97. Just a week ago, I contacted her and welcomed her to the 97 Year Actor's Club.

My family loves Doris Day movies so much that there is a framed photo of her in the downstairs bathroom, which turned into people in my family saying that they were going to “visit Doris” as a euphemism for going pee. And today: pic.twitter.com/IpsQieWkE9
