Actor and TV legend Andy Griffith passed away on Tuesday aged 86, and while he will almost certainly be best known as the man behind Matlock and, of course, The Andy Griffith Show, there are some interesting things you might not have known about the screen legend.
His singing chops were as big as his acting ones
Griffith originally had hopes of becoming a Moravian preacher but instead chose to major in music while at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, singing with the school's Carolina Play Makers.
The Andy Griffith show was a CLASSIC.
Our actor and character has gone on. But, I think, he has now completed his desire of being a Moravian Preacher with his meeting his Lord.
