Forever more than a costar. Betty White and Valerie Harper took to social media on Thursday, January 26, to mourn the loss of their costar, TV icon Mary Tyler Moore. The legendary Mary Tyler Moore Show actress died at the age of 80 on Wednesday, January 25, from cardiopulmonary arrest at a Greenwich, Connecticut, hospital, after being hooked up to a respirator for more than a week.

White, who appeared as Sue Ann Nivens on the trailblazing 1970s sitcom, shared a photo of Moore on Instagram, showing the late star alongside her then-husband, producer Grant Tinker, and White’s then-husband, quiz show host Allen Ludden.
“Mary Tyler Moore, Grant Tinker, Allen Ludden and I had some of the best times of my life together,” the Hot in Cleveland actress, 95, wrote with the sweet throwback photo of the group. “She was special.” Ludden died in 1981 and Tinker, who was married to Moore until 1981, passed away this past November.
