Brian Wright Obituary
Beloved husband of Roslyn Wright (nee Kightley). Cherished father of daughter Laura (Mark) Perry (nee Wright), predeceased by his mother Rachel Wright, and father Eric Wright. Much loved brother to Vivienne (Jim) Davidson. Much treasured brother-in-law to Robert (Ann) Kightley and Jim Kightley. Brian will be missed by an extended family of nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends around Canada.
Brian was a true friend who was always ready with a joke, a story, or a helping hand. He never met a bug he couldn't kill (legally, of course) or a piece of junk that couldn't be made into amazing lawn art. His ability to relate to people and become your closest friend in a microsecond was uncanny and served him well in his career with serving customers in the pest control industry. However, his ability with a rake, shovel, and wood in landscaping and beautifying yards was legendary and many a home of his friends and family proudly display the results of this talent! Bob Seger lost his biggest fan and we're all grateful that Brian wanted to listen and not sing along!
Celebration of Life to be held in early spring with invitations to be sent at a later date. There will be a private cremation and internment at the family plot at the Barrie Union Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, the family would appreciate donations to the Bethell Hospice Foundation (foundation.bethellhospice.org) or the Canadian Cancer Society (cancer.ca).
The family wishes to express their deepest thanks to all of their friends and family for their support and love over the past three months. It takes a village to both raise a child and to care for a family losing a loved one. A special thanks to the amazing people at Bethell Hospice for the end-of-days care and attention for Brian.

My very sincere condolences to Brian's Daughter, Laura & Family. I had no idea Brian Wright had passed on in 2022. He will be greatly missed. I worked with Brian for over 5 years at Cannon Hygiene & Pest Control Services. He was always happy & optimistic and was a great pleasure to work with him. Laura, your Dad was so proud of you and spoke about you continually.

I met Brian in 2010. He was always available to answer my questions and truly helped me start my pest control business back then. We still talked once or twice a year. He always said that I was one of the good ones...(I´m sure he said that to everyone) he was truly the good one.
Thanks Brian.

So sorry for your loss. Brian was always someone I enjoyed working with in the Pest Control Industry. He was a great listener and an even better story teller! My thoughts are with you all.

Deepest condolences to Ros and Laura and all of Brian´s extended family. So very saddened to hear the news. Brian had a huge impact on so many people, particularly in our industry, and he approached every meeting and challenge with a smile and a funny story or two. I learned a lot from Brian over the years, and know he will be truly missed. Rest In Peace Brian.
