reports Andy Griffith has died

I always undersood the reason he didn't return for Mayberry Days is because he didn't want the fanfare of his presence to take away from the event.

I would think he may have wanted everything following his passing to remain low key.

I saw it said "he had been laid to rest on his beloved Roanoke Island."

Boy, did that bring back memories. What is was, was football. If you've never heard it, don't miss it.

And the movie that was called his greatest role is coming on Turner Classics in a few days. He played a mean power hungry SOB. Again, if you've never seen it, do, but he isn't Andy Taylor nice in this movie. The title, "A Face In The Crowd".

Just watched "no time for sergeants" and laughed just as hard as the first time I saw it when I was a wee tyke. Have onion head recorded but haven't watch it yet. Saw it many years ago.

And now that he is gone, Turner Classic will run everything he ever did.

I grieve the loss of Andy, and have been thinking about us soon losing Bill Cosby, and I love Bill Cosby.

Have always loved the Andy Griffith Show. Still watch it to this day. I also loved Andy in Brad Paisley's video "Waiting On a Woman". RIP Andy ....

I have several of The Andy Griffith Show dvds. I watched about 5 shows the other night, and, honestly, felt better for it...don't know of much entertainment that can do that.

RIP Andy...and Don.

Andy Taylor was a great "character", but I was fortunate enough to be able to call Andy Griffith a member of my family. He will be greatly missed, and a piece of the family we always be missing! RIP Andy.
