One other Mayberry marriage comes to mind. The guy who ran the fix-it shop (Hank, or, Henry, maybe Emmett) was featured in an episode where the wife wanted him to retire.

Anybody know if they ever addressed what happened to Opie's mother? I've missed that, I think.


Wiki:

Quote:
Opie's mother is mentioned only once in the series. In "Wedding Bells for Aunt Bee", Andy tells Opie he had a love for the boy's mother similar to the love Aunt Bee feels for her beau. Other than this one mention, Opie's mother is non-existent on the show. There are no photographs of her in the house, or other souvenirs, and no one mentions a grave. She apparently has no relatives in Mayberry such as parents or siblings as Opie never mentions grandparents or aunts and uncles except those on his paternal side. In the backdoor pilot episode from The Danny Thomas Show, viewers learn Andy lost Opie's mother when the boy was "the least little speck of a baby."
