Ironically, Diana Ladd (Belle) and Celia Weston (Jolene) are still alive. Both replaced Holliday when she left to get her Flo spinoff show which failed after two seasons. Ladd also played Flo in the movie that inspired the series (Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore".

Hal and Babs are really pushing the envelope. They’re both 93 years old.

You can never be quite sure about Abe Vigoda.  ;)

Apparently I met him but don't remember. When my mother & sister worked in theater way back in the dark ages, he was one of the actors. This was before anyone knew who he was. My sister told me he was super nice. If memory serves he was in the same play with Betty Grable. I remember meeting her but I wasn't impressed. I later learned that she was ill then (it was shortly before her death) which is why she wasn't in the best mood.
