Barney Fife has left Mayberry for good.

I loved Don Knotts! I loved him on the Andy Griffith show and I loved him in almost all of the movies I saw him in.

But the movie that will always be the one that defines Mr. Knotts for me is when he played the animated fish in "The Incredible Mr. Limpet". That was one of the sweetest stories ever put on film.

Good bye Mr. Knotts, and thank you.
