Along with the show's producing studio, Ferrell's co-stars have also been memorializing her. "She was a beautiful human. Berta's gruff exterior was an invention of the writers. Chatty's warmth and vulnerability were her real strengths," tweeted Jon Cryer. "I'm crying for the woman I'll miss, and the joy she brought so many."

Charlie Sheen also spoke out, calling Ferrell "an absolute sweetheart, a consummate pro" and "a genuine friend." He then stated that her death is "a shocking and painful loss." Finally, Sheen spoke to Ferrell's character, writing, "Berta, your housekeeping was a tad suspect, your 'people' keeping was perfect."

Had the great pleasure of working with Conchata on LA LAW. Also, if you haven’t seen “Heartland,” you owe it to yourself to watch it. Thanks for the brilliant work & RIP Conchata! https://t.co/OpxelPnBZw

Finally, Melanie Lynskey — who played Rose in Two and a Half Men — wrote, "Lovely, brilliant Chatti. I'm weeping. She was the warmest, most gracious lady. Her husband Arnie came to every single taping of Two And A Half Men and sat in the audience, beaming with pride. Her sweet daughter Samantha was often there too. Oh, she was loved. She will be missed."
