In Memory of Andy Griffith

In Memory of Andy Griffith By Elton Camp It's bad news that we received today The actor Andy Griffith passed away For decades he's kept us entertained As Sheriff Taylor he has remained The passing years have passed on by Old age came and Andy had to die It was as Matlock that I liked him best Not with Bee, Opie, Barney & the rest Mayberry was a town just far too sweet To some, that fantasy world can't be beat But one of his best roles that I ever saw He played an insane, murderous grandpa That he could play roles so diverse Makes me miss him all the worse
