Archie is a local undertaker who first appeared as Blanche Hunt's new companion. Archie always saw the good in Blanche. He asked Audrey Roberts to help out part time and dress the hair of some of his deceased clients but this made Blanche jealous. Finally Archie finshed with Blanche. He's been a very good friend to Audrey, even opening her home to him after her evil son in law Richard Hillman attempted to kill her by burning down her house. Archie was the only one at first that believed that Audrey was not losing her mind and that Richard was trying to kill her and stood by her admirably. He eventually fell in love with Audrey but when he asked her if there was any chance they could be more than friends, she gently told him there could not be. We haven't see him since.
