Rickie, Bruce and Family. It is with deep sorrow that we write this as we learned of Dick's passing. We first got to know Dick and Gwen when we worked at Spinner's. Then at Rose Point we catered many dinners and parties, and it was through those times that we got to know Dick well. Being a huge Penn State fan, he would pick up sandwiches at Breads n Cheese on his way to State College. I can still see him coming around the corner in the kitchen wearing his cowboy hat and...

I have known Dick for several years- first met him when I started working for Gilberts, Reading. Then, when I started to work for myself; he was extremely supportive, inspiring and confidence builder as I was working on several projects with him as an independent consultant. I have not seen him for several years, but the memories of meeting him and working with him are indelible. Wishing the best for him for the lasting peace.

I worked as the board administrator when Mr. Wright was a member of the Pennsylvania State Registration Board for Professional Engineers, Land Surveyors and Geologists. He was well-respected and professional in his dealings as a member of the Board. And I so appreciated our spiritual discussions during a time of spiritual turmoil for me. He was a blessing and his love for God and His Son, Jesus, was so apparent.

Having worked with Dick for many years, I will always remember his quick inquiring mind and his principled approach to business and life. Always the "teacher", I continue to be one of his "students".
Go in peace my friend.

To the Wright family,

I send my condolences. I was a janitor (contract by outside company) at RE Wright in the early 1990's before I went back to school. Mr. Wright was a very down to earth gentleman and businessman. He had one superb company and hired
really upstanding people. One of his employees,
Mrs. Heidi Brown then became one of my best friends, and still is to this day. I was blessed to be one of the janitors at his company for a short time. RIP Mr. Wright, God gained...
