Ken,
In "The New Housekeeper" episode, Aunt Bee is leaving and Opie runs outside
and is wanting Aunt Bee to stay, He says she doesn't know how to do anything,
play baseball, catch fish, or hunt frogs...the he says "She needs me" and he
falls into her arms and they hug each other. I think it was a real embrace.
That one just kinda stands out to me.
Also, after hearing the sad news that Andy has passed away, I just want to say,
"Thank You" to Andy for his work that touched so many lives in such a positive
way. So many of us have been blessed by his life. And not just Andy, but All of
those involved with TAGS. They all brought us so much joy and laughter and
taught us so much about how to live life and how to treat others. And they
continue to do so even though they are not all still with us. There are just
not enough appropriate words to describe what we feel. Andy, we will forever be
grateful to you!
And to all of us that love TAGS so much, I challenge each of us to continue to
try to live a "Mayberry" kind of life. Our families need and deserve that. Our
country ,as a whole, needs it more than ever right now! We often talk about how
different things are now than when we grew up. Well, we can make a difference
in our way of life. We can all try to make our communities more "Mayberry
Like". I'm sure Andy would approve.
