Remembering Skeet–Fundraiser Plaque In Honor of George Everett "Skeet" Hagans Jr.

Hello everyone!  I am writing to you to invite you to help honor and remember Skeet.  I am working with his daughter to raise funds to purchase a memorial plaque which will be displayed at the Braswell rec center.  Any excess funds collected will be donated to the local chapter of the Red Cross.

You can drop off a cash donation at the Braswell or Roberson center.  Even the smallest amount is helpful and meaningful.  Just put it in an envelope, and write "JARVIS or SALLY" on the outside.  If you prefer to write a check to the Red Cross, you can drop it off the same way, or mail it directly:

American Red Cross

Frederick E. Turnage Chapter

326 S. Franklin St.

Rocky Mount NC  27804

We hope to conclude our fundraising efforts by the end of April.  Could you please spread the word to others who knew and cared for Skeet?  I think the visual remembrance of a plaque at the rec center, combined with a gift that helps care for those in need, will be a wonderful way to honor Skeet’s great work ethic, and his warm, friendly personality (not to mention that GREAT laugh!).

Thank you!

Sally Moseley

TARBORO — Sally Moseley said she wept when she saw the death notice for Skeet in the newspaper.
George “Skeet” Hagans died Christmas Day. He was 69.

Sally had known Skeet for about 10 years. They met when she went to the Braswell Center to work out in the fitness room.

Skeet was the center’s custodian who kept the fitness room – the center – clean. (Read more)

Note: I totally agree with all has been said about Skeet. I have been knowing Skeet just about all of my life. He was a good friend of the family and he and my mom worked cleaning up banks.

I used to run into Skeet from time to time in Walmart and we always held a short conversation. He always talked about how he appreciated the things I did and especially when I videoed his daughter’s wedding. He love his daughter and grand children.

I was totally shocked to received the phone call on my birthday (Christmas Day) that Skeet had passed.

Skeet will truly be missed. C. Dancy II DCN Publisher
