A simple “thank you!”
Since our first meeting almost 11 years ago, as “Cotton” was sticking a stork in our front yard for the birth of my oldest son, “Cotton” has continued to inspired me.
Never in my travels have I met a man and woman who were more willing to serve or who were more passionate in their service then “Cotton” and Margie Wright.
"Cotton" - You will be missed.
Our thoughts are with Margie and the entire Wright family.

Our thoughts and prayers are with the family. Cotton and Maggie were among the first people we met when attending Bement United Methodist Church. So friendly and caring and willing to help anyone. Our sympathy is with you all.

I'll never forget going to the Bement Auction and seeing Cotton "work it" with his wife.
Great man and great family.
With love,
