Fred M. Wright

As a young employee of Western Farmers in the late 70's, I had little contact with Mr Wright, but one day, he stopped by my desk and we discussed my upcoming trip to Europe. He recommended going to Grindelwald in Switzerland and my travelling friend and I took his excellent advice and visited that beautiful region. I will never forget that conversation and his advice - thank you Mr Wright.

Thank you Fred for always seeing the good in my intentions and the efforts behind my mistakes. Thank you for believing in and encouraging me. I didn't see you much after you quit driving but your kindness will not be forgotten. You made this world a better place.

Fred was such a special man and I will always cherish the wonderful memories I have growing up across the street from the Wright's in Laurelhurst. My Dad and Fred were special friends and neighbors to each other. Please rest in peace, dear Fred. You will be missed.

We loved your father, grandfather, uncle. He was such a gentleman and always so cheerful and gracious. We loved seeing him walking - even when it was just around the block. He was always delighted to see everyone. He loved his boys and his family. We walk by your house every day w/ our dogs and always think lovingly of him. We so wanted to celebrate his birthday with him this year and we're so sad to learn we missed it. Hugs to all of you. Connie and Gil Edwards

(Great) Uncle Fred, along with his brother, my grandfather, were some of the kindest men I will ever know. I will deeply miss hearing his stories, especially the one about meeting Aunt Pat. Love, kiea

Fred and Pat were my customers for 30 years at my optical shop. We became friends. Fred and i always shared great conversation and lots of laughter. He will be greatly missed.

I headed the Feed Dept. under Fred leadership. A fine gentleman, leader, and friend. Leonard Hitchman

The corner is not the same without Fred. He and Pat were neighborhood treasures always looking out for others and willing to help with a tool, a key and a smile.

Fred and Pat were long time neighbor s and friends.
God Bless! Gloria Hennings
