I'm sure all of you know that Andy Griffith, that wonderful and funny Sheriff Andy Taylor of Mayberry, died today at the age of 86. He was a music teacher at Goldsboro High School, here in Wayne County, before starting his most successful career. I was raised in a town similar to the fictional town of Mayberry, three streets in all, everyone knew everyone and was probably related in some way. Didn't have our own sheriff, but we all watched out for one another. We will miss him, but know that he is at rest and in the arms of his Lord.
