I remember years ago me and my cousin Ariana went to Arthur Lee's house and we were sitting in the living room. I told my cousin that I was hungry and Arthur walked in the living room and said "I've got cucumbers in the backyard yall can go get some". So we wandered into the backyard to the garden and sure enough there were fresh cucumbers right off the vine and he let us have them. One of the most genuine, honest, and caring man I've ever met. Rest In Peace King.

My uncle Arthur Lee Thigpen was truly special to me. From a young man I learned so much from him that I will never forget. He taught me how to tie a necktie, and what it means to be a man. We would stay with him during the summer, and he would make us breakfast. I remember the many trips he took us on during the summer. He would pile all of us in his small car and take us to the mountains. We would play basketball together. I even remembered when he played basketball for his high school G.W. Carver in Pinetops, NC. So many special memories that I will keep in my heart and share with my family. I will miss him so much. Love and prayers to the family.

Milton Thigpen

Sending healing prayers and comfort during this tough time.

My Father-n-Law was someone who treated his daughter-in-law as his own, offering love, support, and a sense of belonging. He was a role model, demonstrating values like respect, diligence, and care for others. His legacy lives on through the memories created and the values he instilled in his Family.😇🙏🏽😪💔💙

Jacqueline Thigpen

Our staff will continue to keep your family in our prayers. We thank you for allowing us to serve your family.
