Holliday passed away at her home in New York on Tuesday, Sept. 9, following years of health issues, her agent Denise Aspland told The New York Times.
It’s believed her death is the result of pneumonia, according to People.
The Post has reached out to Aspland for comment.
The actress played Flo, the sassy character in “Alice” for four seasons alongside Linda Lavin (Alice), Vic Tayback (Mel), Beth Howland (Verna) and Philip McKeon (Tommy).
Holliday left the sitcom in 1980, but Flo’s famous catchphrase “Kiss my grits” made her a breakout star.
She continued playing Flo in her own spinoff series the following year; however, it was short-lived, only lasting two seasons.
Holliday earned four Emmy nominations for the role.
