Charlotte Rae, the Broadway actress who played the beloved housekeeper on Diff'rent Strokes and the nutritionist/housemother on The Facts of Life passed away on August 5, 2018 at the age of 92. Like Florence Henderson's "Mrs. Brady", Ann B. Davis' "Alice" or Marion Ross' "Mrs. Cunningham", Rae's "Mrs. Garrett" was a beloved fictional TV matriarch that featured prominently in the 1970s/80s and remained a pop-culture staple.Different Strokes would not have been the same without you #CharlotteRae.
