Mrs. Wright, loved her grandson Mike and loved taking him ever where her and her husband went. She was definately a family lady because she loved her children the very same way that she loved Mike. May God Bless her family and be with them at this time of sorrow but we must stay strong because just imagine if God took pictures and memories away we would not be able to remember her at all so for this we all can be thankful. She will be missed.
