Not sure what to say?

To the Wright family,
Dr. Wright was a leader. I enjoyed his craftsmanship in and about life. I always enjoyed being around him.

Terry and Martha:

You have my sincere condolences on the loss of your father.

My condolences to Mrs. Wright and his family. John was a good person and a fair-minded man. I was privileged to have known him and to have associated with him at Baptist Hospital.

John was a special guy. He not only was my Dr. but he and Catherine were long time friends.

I’m very saddened by the news of John Kelly’s death. He was a good friend and I loved talking with him about history and people we had both known in Livingston and Overton County. I will miss him and his sharp personality. My condolences to your family.
