George built our first house in Charlotte and for years, we enjoyed family trips together to the Buccaneer in Myrtle Beach. I moved to Missouri eleven years ago, but made it a point to go see George every time I returned to NC for a visit, the most recent just this April. He was a dear, faithful friend, a fun-loving person who loved to dance and enjoy being with his friends. My love and deepest sympathy to Betty, Tracy, Teresa, Randy and Ronald and their families. I will truly miss George! Love, Carole Fitzgerald (Wildwood, MO)

So many memories have consumed our hearts and minds since we heard of George's passing. He was such a dear friend to the Digh family. I will never forget how he helped our family when my father was in a bad wreck when we first moved to Sandy Ridge. He made sure Mother and I got to the hospital every day. When Hoyle was a little boy he delighted in hanging around George and Hoyle helped him with carpentry and things in the yard. He will be missed by many people.
