Andy's Cause of Death, Burial Info

[Gretchen Offord (SGC)]

RALEIGH, N.C. — The death certificate for Andy Griffith says the actor’s death 
earlier this week was caused by a heart attack.


The certificate says the 86-year-old had suffered the attack 24 hours before he 
died at 7 a.m. Tuesday. It also says he had suffered 
for years from other illnesses, including coronary artery disease, 
hypertension and hyperlipidemia, which can be a form of high cholesterol or 
high triglycerides.

Griffith’s death certificate was filed Thursday with the vital 
records office in Dare County. It says he’s buried in the Griffith 
Family Cemetery in Manteo. Dr. Johnny Farrow of Manteo signed the 
certificate. Griffith was best known for playing Sheriff Andy 
Taylor in “The Andy Griffith Show,” which aired from 1960 to 1968. He 
was born in Mount Airy and lived in Manteo.

Re: Andy laid to rest

Andy was laid to rest on his farm on Roanoke Island, NC yesterday, but 5 hours 
after he had passed. This was per his
instructions. The funeral home there confirmed it. There was a small service, 
for family and close friends at about 11:30 am
EDT.

May all those mourning his passing be comforted for as his wife Cindy so 
beautifully eulogized, he is 'with his Lord'.
