Not sure what to say?

I was very saddened by the death of a very close friend, and confidant,Mr. Wright, I spoke to him for the last time about a year before his death, his daughter had been hired on as the director of the community outreach program at my church Word Alive Ministries. and of course when he sees me I hear my full name called out in it's entirety, followed by a big warm embrace, as the coversation started we began to talk about the old days at KJHS, and he says you know Kim, your class was my second...

Today is Dr. King's holiday. When I think of a person who best shows , lived, Dr. King's philosophy; I think of Dr. Clint Wright. He was a dear friend to my husband, myself and thousands more. I'll never forget the time he spoke at Jason Carter's funeral( a white , blond young man, who was killed in a tragic accident , while serving in the military) Clint called him his "son". Clint had/has so many sons and daughters. He helped our son during a difficult time.
The last time...

I am shocked and saddened by the passing of Dr.Wright. I grew up not eight houses up from Dr.Wright. He has always been a man of great courage and leadership. He will live on as a shining example of what true dedication can really accomplish. I will never forget him.

I remember Mr. Wright from my days at Kathleen Junior High. He was one of the reasons I went into the field of education. I have traveled to many places and never have I met a man like Mr. Wright. I am currently living and teaching in England. When I heard the news that Mr. Wright had passed away I wept as if he was one of my family members. I will never forget Mr. Wright and feel very privileged to of known such a wonderful man. He will me missed not only by Lake Wales and Polk County, but...

There are no words to describe Mr. Clint Wright, he was one of a kind. He always knew my name no matter where we happen to see each other. He was my teacher at KJHS in the 70's, I feel privileged have know such a wonderful man, he was also my daughters principal at KHS, and I remember going to all the football games as she was a cheerleader and Mr. Wright would always do "the tootsie roll" with the girls. Its amazing that one man could have such an impact on so many lives, but that...
