On this day, July 3, 2012, Andy Griffith died.

Ten years ago: Andy Griffith, 86, who made homespun American Southern wisdom his trademark as the wise sheriff in “The Andy Griffith Show,” died at his North Carolina home.

Of course, they all live on in reruns.

Andy is remembered for lots of acting roles, but the show is a true classic.

RIP to all who have passed on.

And, to Ron Howard's long life (and movies) to come.
