I remember watching the Andy Griffith show all the time with my father as a child. He loved watching it, and while it took a while for me to find the appeal of the show (I had a bias against black and white shows), I learned to enjoy it myself. I never did watch much of Matlock, though. Mr. Griffith was an excellent actor, and is still fun to watch to this day. He will be missed; it's always a shame to see an actor of his caliber pass on to the next existence. Rest easy, Mr. Griffith

Aw... well, at least he had a long life, and did a lot of great things throughout his career. I'll miss him.

We'll all miss him. The town of Mayberry just won't be the same.

Well, now we know it was from natural causes. I expected as much, really. I mean, I Mr. Griffith wasn't going out and doing crazy stuff like a lot of people, and I know he didn't have anyone out there who would want to hurt him. Maybe it's a bit of a relief knowing, just in case, because you never know these days. It's good he was laid to rest with his family.

So it was natural causes. Don't know why they didn't just say it at first. Oh well, at least now we know.
