Seeking Structural Engineer in central North Carolina

Hello, does anyone have any suggestions for a good STRUCTURAL ENGINEER in NC?

The building I need looked at is in Henderson, NC about an hour north of Raleigh.  

The county is requesting a letter from an engineer after inspecting some work that was done to the roof a few years back.

I had a guy go out and look at it with me.  This engineer, who I have used several times over the last 3 years, unfortunately unexpectedly passed away after our meeting before he got a chance to write the letter. :(  Total bummer.

So now I am back a few squares, seeking a reputable person who can get this done for me.

I'd prefer to find what some people call a "bedroom engineer," meaning they don't work for a huge company with huge offices and huge bills.  My original guy was going to charge $400 for the inspection and letter.  i just called around and got some quotes in the $1000 to $1500 range, and they both seemed to be larger companies.

Any help is greatly appreciated :) thanks!
