Missing Mayberry

How wierd is it that I was listening to that Mayberry song by Rascal Flatts this morning when I got the news that Don Knotts had passed away?!

Whether you think of Barney Fife or Ralph Furley when you hear the name Don Knotts, the odd little guy with the tremendous gift for self-deprecating humor made an impression on everyone who ever saw his performances--either in first-run or re-run.

And, don't forget his movies. As a kid, I couldn't get enough of him and Tim Conway in The Apple Dumpling Gang.

If you want to take a longer trip down Memory Lane, check out this online Don Knotts Shrine. How they got it on the internet so quickly is irrelevant. Just enjoy the fact it's there.

Rest in Peace, Funny Man.
