Thank Ancestry for gathering all this wonderful information on Andy and sharing it with all of us. All of us will miss him dearly. His shows reminded us of how life use to be and in some way helped keep some of us grounded. I had the wonderful privilege of meeting Andy as he was shooting a scene for the Matlock series. I worked at Brunswick Cove Nursing Center located in Wilmington, N.C. and they used the facility for one of the series being filmed. He was awesome and down to earth. The patients loved and adored him. My husband also had the privilege of meeting him as he was crossing a street going into a restaurant. He stopped and shook my husbands hand and chatted and signed an autograph on a newspaper for my husband. That made his day, because he just loved watching all of his shows. Thank you Andy for touching our lives.

As a fatherless young man I found Andy and Opie very much my ideal. While I grew up with and without TV at times I found the reruns very nurturing. Thanks for your blog.

So sad to see him go. He was like our T.V. dad . . he reminded us of our own dad, country to the core, a Police Officer as well. My dad also gave firm, but caring discipline. We still love watching the Andy Griffith Show set in Mayberry. Thanks for filling us in on his journey before the shows.
