    R.I.P. Andy Griffith (A NC Legend)

    Just been reading that he has passed away. I can remember a couple times growing up and watching this show (of course it was reruns ) but a true legend. R.I.P.

    When I heard about it my heart sank . He was one of my all-time favorite actors ever , and the Andy Griffith show was one of my favorite shows. I think I've seen all of them .

    Andy was also the kind of person I wish we all could be . The world has lost a great man . RIP .

    Sad news indeed.

    He even made it on the BBC's news page!
    Witness an ordinary user on an ordinary forum posting with other ordinary users. At least, it may seem like an ordinary user to these other users. But what they don't realize is that this user registered to the site from the Twilight Zone.

    Wow

    At least he apparently got what he wished for after his passing.

    why does the tmz link say Andy Griffith Buried Dead..... do they think he would have been buried alive?

    regardless sad to see even if we all die.

    Terrible loss for the entire world. This REALLY makes me sad to see him go. At least he wasn't creamated as That could (would) have gotten the old rumor mill cranking at a rapid rate of fuel consumption don'tcha know.
