Tribute
Just noticed at 9 A.M. (EST) that TVLand played the TAGS episode A Date For Gomer as a tribute to the deceased Mary Grace Canfield. ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
Mary Grace Canfield - RIP
Mary Grace Canfield has died at age 89. She played Gomer's blind date 'Mary Grace' (Thelma Lou's Cousin) on TAGS, but most known for Ralph on Green Acres. Interesting in the death notices online that many comments reference her appearance on TAGS as memorable, and it was noted that Mary Grace said Ralph was not challenging enough as an actress and was not what she desired to be remembered for. RIP Mary Grace. Quiet Sam ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
CHARACTER'S REAL FIRST NAME
Another character that used her real first name was the lady druggist, Ellie, played by Elinor Donahue. Andy called her by both Elinor and the nickname Ellie in various episodes. Mike Peacock ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
Citizens Arrest
I was watching Citizens arrest on Tvland this morning. In the scene where Otis comes out of his cell and answers the phone call from Gomer I could swear he tells Barney who is in the other cell that Floyd's filling station was robbed. I don't have the DVD so I can't go back and watch it again. Did he say that or am I hearing it wrong?

Actor's Name
I can think of two actors who used their same first names whilst on TAGS. Jerry Van Dyke played the role of Jerry Miller. Elinore Donahue played the role of Elinore Walker. -- Ken Anderson The Mayberry Guru 2906 May Street Eau Claire, Wisconsin 54701 www.themayberryguru.com www.mayberryreflections.com ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
Aunt Bee the wagon
Larry got the fourth one, Aunt Bee operated a coaster wagon loaded with beef in Bargain Day (I don't know whether or not it was red, though). To the naysayers who think Opie was the one who operated it, yes he did the pulling but when they leave the house, Aunt Bee gives it a push. Well, Paul, I thought of the wagon, but I dismissed it because by mode of transportation, I thought you meant something to transport people. Besides, I think the original question was for three modes of transportation that Aunt Bee operated, right? Guess I'm being nitpicky!

Barney
While we are on the subject of modes of transportation, name two that Barney operated that did not have motors. I'm a day behind again, so someone probably already answered this, but Barney rode a horse and a bike.

Mary Grace
RIP Mary Grace. I had the privilege of presenting Mary Grace Canfield with a corsage when I met her about 15 years ago. She's probably received many of them since her appearance on TAGS. I'm sure she has entered Heaven properly adorned. Bobby the Beast Hay ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
Piano Bench
Orville Hendricks you brought up that the Taylors had a piano bench one time and a stool another time. When I read that, I got reminded of the episode with Aunt Nora and Uncle Ollie. When they are eating dinner, the boys are sitting on the piano bench at the table. This feels so real because when I was growing up, if we had more than four people at the table, we dragged out the piano bench. It would hold two kids or two skinny adults. I love seeing that episode as it brings back good memories.
