Arthur Lawrence Wright

I had the great pleasure of being Larry's minister while he lived in Tampa. He not only livened up my Sunday School class, he brought philosophical and intellectual depth to our discussions. He even dressed up as the SNL "Church Lady" to do skits to promote our class. He was a sensation. When he came back to visit in Tampa we would often meet at Pach's for breakfast. I would bring a notebook to jot down some of the jewels that would pour forth from his mouth. I always urged him to write a...

I was in Dr. Wright's BA 324 class in Spring of 2003. He was one of the nicest professors I have ever had. I just wanted to express my sincerest condolences to his family.

Dr. Larry Wright was one of the best teacher's I have had at McCombs. He was a great mentor and and an overall great guy.

He had a great sense of humor and took a genuine interest in the improvement of his students. He was one of a kind and will be missed by many. My condolences to his family.

I was so sad to hear about Larry's death. My condolences to all his family and friends.
I worked with Larry here in Tampa when we were both involved with the Dreamquest Productions. He has been a dear friend ever since. I had lunch with him while he was in Tampa last May for his son's graduation and his laughter and good spirits is what I will always remember.
Thank you for sharing your talents with us all, Larry. Our world is a little smaller without you.

I was in Dr. Wright's communication class in the Spring of 2003. He always strived to help his students and taught me much in many regards. He will be missed.

Mr. Wright,
I was just thinking about you the other day and about the bottle of Dom Perignon that I promised I'd owe you if I got the scholarship for the letter you helped me write. Guess what, I got it. I'll leave the bottle closed until I see you.

Mr. Wright was one of my instructors the first semester I transferred to the UT Business School. Everybody should be as lucky to have a teacher and more importantly a friend like him. My prayers are with you Mr. Wright, your...

I loved professor Wright. I would see him from time to time after taking his class in the Fall of 2002. At the time I was booked in two plays and gave him and his wife tickets to come and see me in an Opera. A few of us in his class joined him at the Cactus Cafe for drinks so we could get to know him outside of class. He cared about every student's progress and he was one of my inspirations to be a writer for the Austin Student despite not being a formal journalist. He talked of his lovely...

Dr. Wright gave two guest lectures to Ballet Austin staff members on Business Communication in 2003. We are so grateful to have had the opportunity to know and learn from him, and will keep his loved ones in our thoughts and prayers.

I enjoyed Professor Wright's class immensely and I am very sorry to hear of his passing.
