"God loves a terrier, and the Westminster Dog Show loves Catherine O'Hara. On February 3, the annual dog competition took a moment to pay homage to the late actress and one of her many beloved roles as a mother: Cookie Fleck from Best in Show. O'Hara and her frequent collaborator Eugene Levy starred in the 2000 mockumentaryas the proud parents to Winky, the winner of the fictional Mayflower Kennel Club Dog Show."
"During the real-life judging of the Norwich terriers at Madison Square Garden last night, the audience clapped as the Jumbotron played a video montage of O'Hara as Cookie and praised her as a "true legend, timeless talent and icon." Since her death at 71 on January 30 following a brief illness, O'Hara has been honored with several tributes that nod at her onscreen performances; Home Alone's Macaulay Culkin shared a throwback photo of his "Mama," while Schitt's Creek star Annie Murphy said "#goodbyetoagreatactress😎"."
