Not sure what to say?

Mrs. Wright,
I was very sad to hear of your loss. Many condolences to you and your family. I have had the pleasure of taking care of Mr. Wright at both Kozy's and Evangeline's over the past several years. I'm honored to have had a chance to know him. He will be missed.

Nell and Family,
I'm so sorry to hear about Ed. I read it in the paper but my grandmother passed away on Christmas Eve (97 years old# and I didn't see it until later. My daughter, Memory, didn't know Ed was Mother's #Memory Hereford Littles) cousin until she met him at work with David McCrary and from then on when he and David met, he gave Memory heck! He was a sweet, swwet man. God grant you peace and hold tight to those precious memories.

I have had the pleasure of working with Mr. Wright everyday for three years. He means so much to my family, he is like a father to me.

I would listen to all his great stories about what happen in his past the way he met Mrs. Wright and When Kelly was born that was a great one to listen to. His face would light up talking about Kelly. Spending time with Morgan and Hamilton was what brought joy to his...

May your faith in and strength from God carry you through these sad times and the fond memories you have get you through these dark days. My love to you...Gail (Hitt) Wheat, Topeka Ks.

I have such fond memories of Uncle Ed. I remember when he married and I remember all the times I saw him driving around with his poodle in the truck with him. I know he loved life and his family and he fought being sick.

I was saddened to learn of Mr. Wright's passing late Sunday afternoon. Many years ago, I rented from the Wright family during my college days and they were always very fair and professional - a testament to Mr. Wright's character, ethics & leadership. Later, after I entered the real estate profession, I always kept an eye on Mr. Wright from afar as he had the "midas touch" when it came to real estate development. Indeed, he was a "best in class" Tuscaloosa developer. With that said, what...
