Did everyone see a newspaper article where despite the recent massacre tragedy, the town was touted as being like Mayberry? In light of this and other numerous references, I do believe we're overdue for a new dictionary entry:
Mayberry n. name of an iconic, fictionalized town; synonymous with peaceful living among loving people; often used as an adjective, as in "Mayberry quality of life." Origin: national public tv sitcom "The Andy Griffith Show," aired 1960-68, syndicated ever since. Note: diehard fans of the show often claim to be Mayberrians in their hearts and minds.
