:pray: Very sad indeed...RIP Andy :pray: Title: Re: BREAKING: Andy Griffith has passed away Post by: Jamos on July 03, 2012, 10:58:59 AM I first remember Andy when he made a record about a baseball game in a pasture, I was pretty young then and can't remeber a whole lot about it but I know we thought he was a very funny man.
When you look at all that he was responsible for in making sitcoms as popular as they became, he and Lucille Ball stand at the front of the fine for those that did most. RIP Andy, you were one of my favorite tv heros. :( :pray: Title: Re: BREAKING: Andy Griffith has passed away Post by: Chechem on July 03, 2012, 11:05:08 AM I first remember Andy when he made a record about a baseball game in a pasture, I was pretty young then and can't remeber a whole lot about it but I know we thought he was a very funny man.

Title: Re: BREAKING: Andy Griffith has passed away Post by: N.AL-Tider on July 03, 2012, 01:54:20 PM He made a movie early in his acting career that was really funny. I think it was called "No time for sargents" or something like that.
Regardless, RIP Andy Title: Re: BREAKING: Andy Griffith has passed away Post by: 2Stater on July 03, 2012, 02:24:47 PM http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S0uGeO2UuA8
