Andy Griffith, star of one of The Andy Griffith Show (one of the most popular TV shows of all time with one of the most memorable theme songs), has died at 86. In a way, it's shocking he was so young considering how far back he goes. Griffith extended his fame with Matlock and was seen in 2008 endorsing President Obama and in 2010 plugging Medicare on Obama's behalf. RIP!

Not sure how many other residents of Mayberry are alive now other than Ron Howard?
