Two Chairs No Waiting 123: Mayberry Fan Al Gandolfi http://twochairsnowaiting.com/
We talk often to tribute artist for characters on The Andy Griffith Show and from time to time to the actual stars themselves. I thought it would be nice to hear from some Mayberry fans. What The Andy Griffith Show means to them and what it is they like about the show.
I met up with Mayberry fan Al Gandolfi (member of WBMUTBB) back in March 2009 following an event in West Palm Beach, Florida held at Grace Fellowship. The event was called “Mayberry Comes to Grace Fellowship” and Senior’s pastor Frank Ingram helped make that event happen. You may think that the Mayberry events held around the country just “happen” but that’s certainly not true.
Al, like Pastor Ingram, also made a Mayberry event happen in his town. It was called “Good Ole Days -- A Tribute to Mayberry” and it was held in Cocoa, Florida on April 8th-9th, 2005. We get to hear a bit from Al about the hard work that goes into making these events happen for all of us, the fans, to enjoy.
I believe you’ll enjoy getting to meet Al and you’ll certainly hear from a man that loves The Andy Griffith Show. I think you might also hear put into words some of the same feelings you have when watching Andy, Barney, Opie, Aunt Bee, and our other Mayberry neighbors.
