Not sure what to say?

I was friends with his brother Perry. Perry talked very highly of Dr. Wright

John was more than a friend he was family our Beloved Poppa J was a father, grandfather and so much more to the Crosby Family... We live and will forever miss "my handsome´ John was hilarious a soul many didn´t get to see. Rest In Heavenly Peace John

Dr Wright was our vet when we first moved to Ely in 1981. I remember that people told me that he was not as much a fan of "hunting breeds" or maybe he mentioned it. But something about our German Shorthaired Pointer (a bird hunting type dog) touched him and I remember him saying he enjoyed our "Suzie" and said she was not only sweet but never gave an inch of problem with vet appointments. Thank you Dr Wright for starting us off in Ely with memories of a great vet!
