Dear Wright family,We are so sorry to hear about the passing of your father, our prayers and deepest condolences go out to you all. We are further sorry that we are just finding out about this today as we don't check your email regularly.We pray that the Holy Spirit would comfort you all and lift you up and give you strength and peace. With Love,

Burt was my friend, my mentor, my colleague (and occasionally my supervisor!) at Gottfried Consultants and Coopers & Lybrand, where I benefitted from his wisdom and admired the grace with which he comported himself in all circumstances. Although he has gone to join his beloved Kay, his impact on those of us who knew him will continue through the years. My condolences to his many descendants, whom I'm sure gained much more than I from his presence and his love.
