HOLLYWOOD - Betty White fans across the U.S. have reflected on the Emmy-winning television star's life since she died Dec. 31 at age 99.

Monday would have been her 100th birthday, and some of those admirers commemorated the occasion, attending celebrations of her career or participating in virtual memorials.

At about 900 movie theaters across the country, the independent distributor Fathom Events screened “Betty White: A Celebration,” a 100-minute documentary filmed before her death. (The original subtitle was “100 Years Young — A Birthday Celebration.”)

“During the many years we worked with her, we developed a great love and admiration for Betty as a person, and as an accomplished entertainer,” producers Steve Boettcher and Mike Trinklein said in a joint statement.

“We are thankful for the many decades of delight she brought to everyone,” they added.
