January 7, 1977 — June 22, 2019

Waynesboro – Gary Lamar Rigdon, Jr., 42, passed away on Saturday June 22, 2019, at the Burke County Medical Center, following a long battle with cancer. He was born on January 7, 1977, in Savannah, GA, to Gary Lamar Rigdon, Sr., and Loretta O'Neal Rigdon.

He was preceded in death by his grandparents; L.E. Rigdon, Jr., Nancy Rigdon, Roscoe O'Neal, and Lillian Bobbie Mock.
In addition to his parents, he is survived by two brothers; Matthew Rigdon (Sue Anne) of Waynesboro, and Randall Rigdon (Cindy) of Blythe; a sister, Alicia Chavers of Hephzibah; his maternal grandmother, Rhetta O'Neal of Savannah; four nephews, Blake Chavers, Mickie Chavers, Billy Bob Rigdon, and Bradley Rigdon; his longtime girlfriend, Emily Partain; as well as several aunts, uncles, and cousins.
