Morgantown's Own

Don Knotts died yesterday. He was too ill to make it back for Don Knotts day here last year, and I don't know if he ever got to see Don Knotts Boulevard along the Monongahela River.

When I was a kid my dad and I always watched the Andy Griffith show - which when I was small, I mangled into The Andy and Mayberry Show - and I thought Barney Fife was the best, even when he moved away to Mt. Pilot.

That is so terribly sad. Mr. Furley gone.

And of course I also loved his film work - especially The Incredible Mr. Limpet and The Ghost and Mr. Chicken.
