I am fighting the tears posting this one yall.  Mrs. Chancellor done died!!!!!!!  Yes Jeanne Cooper, who played Katherine Chancellor on “The Young and the Restless,” has died. She was 84.  She was on Y&R for over 40 years and reflected nothing but class. 37th Annual Daytime Entertainment Emmy Awards - Arrivals

Jeanne had been in and out of a Los Angeles hospital recently due to an undisclosed illness. Her actor/son Corbin Bernsen had been informing fans of her condition via Facebook, where he confirmed her death today. “My mother passed away this morning just a short time ago, peaceful with my sister by her side, in her sleep. I was going to visit this afternoon, thought I had time. Reminder to self – time is a precious thing. I too am at peace however. I said my goodbyes several times over during the last few weeks.

Cooper was hospitalized last month with an undisclosed ailment and was said to be in critical condition

She nabbed 10 Daytime Emmy nominations over the course of her long-spanning career, winning once for “The Young and the Restless” in 2008 after earning a Lifetime Achievement Award in 2004. She was also honored with two Primetime Emmy nods for “Ben Casey” and “L.A. Law.”

Cooper is survived by her three children, Corbin, Colin and Caren, with her ex-husband, television producer Harry Bernsen, Jr.

Jeanne you will be super duperly missed!  What will Victor and Nikki do!?!?!??
