The actor George Lindsay best known to the world as Gomber's more mechanically inclined cousin Goober Pyle has died this morning. He suffered a stroke about two weeks ago and while still weak seemed to have recovered. Sadly it is not the case. R.I.P. Goober.

This is his first or at least most of his first scene on The Andy Griffith Show. He got more intelligent in time just like his t.v. cousin.

He appeared on the 24 year run of Hee Haw as well appearing as Goober Pyle there. He has a cameo in this clip around 1:05.

George mostly did color episodes of Andy Griffith as well as its predecessor, Mayberry RFD.
He also voiced a vulture in the 1973 Disney movie, Robin Hood.
Of all the sketches that he did on Hee Haw, I remember him doing this sketch on Justis' of The Peace where the sheriff brought him in & telling the judge (Archie Campbell) that he sneaks up to people going "Hitchy Kitchy Coo!"
The judge looked it up in his dusty old law book & says thee's no law against it. Then he tickles the judge!
