David A. Wright Sr.

Hard to imagine someone as impactful as Coach Wright. The essence of leadership, he excelled in every endeavor. Education, enterprise, athletics and humanity. I had shared with him, not long ago, the memory from a football game as relayed by my father. Dave's catch of a PAT defeating unbeaten Hillhouse (1950) @ Nolan Field. A stunning upset by a then winless AHS eleven. Self effacing, Dave said one thing is certain in the Valley, memories and myths linger. #81. We will miss the friendship...

Dear josephine and family, I just read about this radegedy. My best lifelong friend, pal, and man with the highest values and qualities I could have ever shared sits with God, and has set a standard of how to live life as God wished to. Thanks Dave.....you were the one friend in my life i always looked up to. God will welcome home, with open arms. Thanks for all you meant to me, and all those you touched during time here. George

My dad, Bill Weimann, always spoke fondly of David. May your memories bring you comfort and peace.

Josephine, I am Bill Weimann´s daughter Karin. I remember both of you during a family reunion even though I was quite young. It was an enjoyable event. May David rest in peace and my family sends their sincere condolences

Sorry to hear about Dave´s passing . Jo you might not remember me I visited you and Dave at the cape year´s ago you and him were so nice I always remembered the good times we had.I was with Joe Carasone at that time.sorry for your loss Joanne Surato

I was so sorry to hear of Dave's passing. We were elementary school classmates and I followed Dave's athletic career with interest. We Were also FB friends and shared the same philosophy. He was a man to be admired. A good father, husband and friend. RIP Dave.

We all loved you coach. Our love to your wonderful wife and family from the class of 1959. Our prayers are with you. Felix and Lynda DellaRocco.

Me and my son Nick Coassin have fond memories of Mr. Wright. He was a pleasure to know.

Rest in peace Uncle Dave. We always enjoyed you and your family. God bless Aunt Jo through this time.
