We still remember and talk on George and Judy. Any given time when the kids are home and we're gathered and just visiting, I'll talk about the years I worked at their Law Office in downtown Raleigh, visiting them a time or two at the beach, and the kids remember the Aquarium and the Giggling Mackerel. George was a gentle giant. We would love to hear from Judy. My cell is 919-805-1969 to text and call day or evening.

George was a great friend and a good man, very helpful. I just recently learned of his death. My condolence to his better half Judy.
May the angels of heaven welcome him.

Nothing has changed. George and Judy are the same, sweet, honest, sincere couple they always were. Every time I drive through downtown Raleigh, especially if I catch the red light, I look up to the second floor and think on them. Every time I open our coat closet and see the yellow 'Giggling Mackerel' ballcap George and Judy bought for our younger son, I think about how good it is to know good, loving people. Life is simple but it's not easy...but it's a lot easier when you know folks like George and Judy Hughes. That's just a fact. As a matter of fact, it's a truth. Love, Robert, Susan, Jared and Jacob Miller.

I have many fond memories of George growing up...my dad was George's Unlce Woody and we spent many holidays together. Judy, we only met a few times, but I send you my prayers and I am so sorry for your loss.

Our sympathy, prayers, thoughts and support go out to Judy and the entire Hughes family. I have had George and Judy on my heart for quite some time. I was compelled recently to drive down their street where they used to live in Raleigh prior to them retiring to the beach. We still have the yellow hat from The Giggling Mackerel that George got for our son, Jacob, back in the day. I used to take care of their computers and their closing up their office and retiring was my first life lesson in customers moving on. I still drive downtown and think on their office on Martin St. I still remember their break room with the tiny TV..and Judy's boxes of snack crackers. Very kind, hearts full of love, compassionate people. George..what a good man. Love, The Miller's.

Judy, I just learned of George's death. I am so sad, the memories came flooding back of our law practice, golf games and times together. We had lost touch, but never in my memories. One of a kind, your George. I will hold the memories close in my heart. Be strong. Joe Cheshire

Judy, I send you my love and prayers, George was such a special person! He was kind, brilliant and put his heart into his work. To me and my whole family, George was a best friend for over 40 years. He has been a real blessing in all our lives and we are the better for having known him.
