The Big Bang Theory Pays Tribute to Carol Ann Susi After Her Death

The Big Bang Theory paid tribute to deceased actress Carol Ann Susi in its latest Season 8 episode entitled "The Septum Deviation." Susi, 62, provided the voice of Wolowitz's mother, often heard but never seen. Susi passed away earlier this week after a battle with cancer.

The episode ended with a card that featured Susi's headshot and the message, "In loving memory of Carol Ann Susi. 'Mrs. Wolowitz.' Every time you spoke, we laughed. You're in our hearts forever."

"The Big Bang Theory family has lost a beloved member today with the passing of Carol Ann Susi, who hilariously and memorably voiced the role of Mrs. Wolowitz," Warner Bros. Television and Big Bang Theory executive producers Chuck Lorre, Steve Molaroand Bill Prady said in a joint statement after Susi's death. "Unseen by viewers, the Mrs. Wolowitz character became a bit of a mystery throughout the show's eight seasons. What was not a mystery, however, was Carol Ann's immense talent and comedic timing, which were on display during each unforgettable appearance. In addition to her talent, Carol Ann was a constant source of joy and kindness to all. Our thoughts and deepest condolences are with her family during this time, and we will miss her greatly."
