Legendary actor and comedian Andy Griffith was laid to rest quickly, buried by family less than five hours after he died.

Griffith's body was placed in a grave on Roanoke Island near the coast of North Carolina at approximately 11:30 a.m., a funeral spokesman told CNN.

"It had been planned for some time," said the spokesman. "This was the wish of his family."

Traditional funeral customs often allow for a more extended period between death and burial, so family and friends may have more opportunity to visit and pay their respects.

Still, said Stegall, "the family's wishes are always abided by."

"Andy was a person of incredibly strong Christian faith and was prepared for the day he would be called Home to his Lord," Griffith's wife, Cindi, said in a statement on Tuesday.

A green funeral seeks to return one’s remains back to the
earth as simply and directly as possible, thus avoiding
embalming and metal caskets that are common in today’s
modern funerals. Green funerals are becoming
increasingly popular as they are environmentally friendly,
affordable and allow families to customize their memorial
services prior to following or at the graveside.

Geez that was like no work at all debunking the lastest stupid conspiracy theory.
