Not sure what to say?

I just saw that Mr. Wright has passed. My condolences to the family for your loss. As you all know he was a good man who was respected everywhere. He was a tough, fair, and compassionate gentlemen. Early in my career in the early eighties I had a couple of illnesses that kept me out of work for a couple of months. Upon my return to work, he provided me the time and guidance to get strong and get back on my feet. I always appreciated his help.

I just read about Al´s passing. He was a great man, devoting so much of his time to youth sports. Al gave me my start at Northeast Utilities back in 1982. Thoughts and prayers to the family!

One cannot talk about youth hockey in West Side and not mention the Wright Family. What a great life and Al brought joy to many aspirating young athletes. I was stunned when my kids started to play hockey that Al was still engaged with MA Hockey. I touched base with him at Coach certification training and I also stopped by his house to drop off registration forms for the teams I was coaching. We talked about the "good old days" of WSHA and all the great times we had.

Bye Papa! Thank you for being an amazing and inspiring person! Keep telling your wild stories!

To the Wright family Sorry to read that Al had passed Brought back some old memories Al coaching me in youth soccer at vets on Sundays He taught us skills and to enjoy the game A great guy
