So sorry to hear of Jim's passing. I have memories of him through daddy and various Post Office functions. He always had a smile and something funny to say or do and always loved those Ga. Bulldogs. I'm sure he will be missed greatly by all that knew and loved him.

Lisa, Steve and Family, Jim was like a brother to Lynn and myself. We enjoyed his fellowship each Sunday and then lunch afterwards. We will miss Jim greatly. There is no doubt that he is rejoycing with his loved ones in Heaven. One day, and it won't be long, we will get to see him again. Our prayers are with you and may GOD bless the Wright family

Our thoughts and prayers are with you all. You all know how much Uncle Jim meant to us. I will miss hearing from him for his "bafflers from the bible" questions.
Jean, we are thrilled that you and Jim remarried and your family was brought back together before he went home to be with the Lord. Your and Jim's wedding will always be the bright spot in his long fight against cancer. The joy on his face and the happiness of that day was commented on by everyone there.
He kept the faith and was comforted by His love for the Lord. Please let it comfort all of you in the days ahead.
We love all of you and share in your grief.

Dear Lisa, Steve and Family,
I am so sorry to learn of Pops passing. He was always so special to me through these years. He showed me so much love in the early years, that is why I called him Pops...he was like my dad. My boys loved him as their Papa. He was just so special to me. Without a doubt, he earned his angel wings and is sitting with our great Lord and Savior. What a wonderful knowledge to have. He has seen the face of Jesus...WOW...that is what he lived his life for...this time when God would welcome him home and he would be told "well done my faithful servant". Pops taught me so much about love and forgiveness, two characteristics of being a devoted follower of Christ. I am going to miss him so badly on this side of heaven but I am rejoicing in knowing that I will be reunited with him in heaven one day. I am praying for you all to feel the loving embrace of our Lord carrying you through these difficult days that will follow for some time. But I also hope that it helps to know what a legacy your dad left to so many people. He was so loved and will never be forgotten. Much love to you all!

Dear Wright Family,
I was so saddened to learn of Jim's passing. I had known him for many years through the credit union where I was an emplyee and he was on the Board of Directors. He will be missed by many.
