Barbara Huffman Wright

Dear Wright family. I knew Barbara and Dick many years ago when I was engaged to their nephew, Richard Huffman. He died in a car accident soon after we were engaged. I also worked at Hamilton National Bank on Market Street in Johnson City . They were customers there and I wanted on them. I married in 1976 and moved to Louisville, KY where I still reside. I am a widow now of 7 years but have fond memories of Barbara and Dick. They were always very kind to me and supportive . My deepest...

Barbara and I worked together at Liberty Bell and Science Hill High School. She was a kind, patient, graceful lady and a caring, dedicated, and intelligent teacher. Barbara could get her point made in her quiet, calm yet determined nature. When Barbara was excited or was about to laugh, she would get this smile and sparkle in her face that was most endearing. She could also sharpen those eyes to let you know she meant business! She seemed to get along well with all kinds of kids. I am...

I am sending my condolences to the family of Barbara Wright. As the teacher who taught English in the room next to Barbara Wright at Science Hill High School, I knew her well. She was a dedicated teacher with concern for her students. She brought me roses from her beautiful rose garden. She had a calming effect on her world. I also took a short trip with her and other teachers on a cruise to the Bahamas. I feel privileged to be her friend. Her death is a great loss to me and those who knew her.

Grief can be so hard, but our special memories help us cope. Remembering you and your loved one today and always.

Condolences to the entire family. Barbara was a woman of grace and kindness. All of us fortunate enough to have crossed paths with her have truly been blessed.

In loving memory of a wonderful person. We will love you and miss you always.

I have quilted for Barbara for many years. She was a sweet lady and I will miss her and her sweet voice and kindness. She made beautiful quilts for her family and friends. She was a customer that became a friend.

Barbara was my English teacher at Lamar High School, but she was so much more than a teacher to me. When I need to talk, she was my confidant. She would always take the time to listen. Occasionally, we would run into each other in a grocery store or doctor's office and she always remembered my name. The last time was only a few months ago, when she introduced me to one of her sons. She was a very sweet lady and I will cherish her memory.

Barbara was a good friend for many years, from limestone on. I am sorry to learn of her passing, praying for the family. -Hilda Remine Pruitt
