The sad news of Andy Griffith’s passing today really begins to put the idea of people I love not being alive forever. Sure, I’ve had people I love so very much pass (Larry “Bud,” and more recently, the mother of a man who I will ALWAYS consider a very good friend and love deeply–even if we rarely communicate, and my beloved Aunt Jackie), but I am not sure why the death of this man really began to make the whole “turn-turn-turn” idea concrete. I love ‘The Andy Griffith Show’ (I will always have the most fond memories of my Mom and I watching it together–in fact, we still do watch it on television) and I REALLY love the show “Matlock.”
