David C. Wright Jr.

"Dave Wright, Good Night". I grew with him. My condolences. Phil Hill

Dear Wright Family,
My name is Marc Anderson. I used to live two houses away from you. My address was 3607 Pinetop Rd. and my family lived there until spring of 1970. I currently live in Durham NC, and today learned of the death of Mr. David Wright. I remember Mr. Wright from his days at WFMY and I also remember he was very nice to me when I was a little boy. My sincerest condolences to Mrs. Wright, to David, Mark, and Alan.

I had kown Dave Wright for many years growing up with his boys. I will miss him very much. David,Mark and Alan your dad was the greatest and will be missed.

I met Dave in Miss Lulu Gilberts first grade class at Central School. I was one grade behind, and we went separate ways after Central school. Dave was well liked and was always outgoing to others. Television was made for him to reach into many homes and lives. We will miss him.

Pastor Alan and family,
My heart breaks for your loss, yet rejoices for your father as he now stands in the presence of his (and our)Heavenly Father.
I am keeping you and your family in my prayers.

I remember Dave fondly from GSHS days ... even then his gregarious personality made him a friend to everyone. My sincere condolences to his family.

We have such good memories of Dave on WFMY, as he was so talented. Alan, you have our sympathy and love. You were so kind to us when our son, Roger and his wife were killed in the ValuJet crash. Your letter meant so much to us as we grieved our loss. God Bless you and your family.

Dear David III, Mark, Alan and Kathryn. Dave and I began our life long journey as buddies in 1940, he was 6 and I was 7. We were the best of pals for many years sharing High School and College together. He was like brother and I will miss him sorely. God rest his soul and comfort you all.

Pastor Alan, our prayers are with you and your family. May God wrap His arms around you during this time. May the tears not be just those of sorrow but also those of joy, for the cherished times and memories.

When a member of your family is as prominent in local television as Mr. Wright was, it must be difficult to share him with the so many who feel that he is family. I grew up with him, Lee Kinard, George Perry and Cordelia Kelly, and so many on WFMY, coming on tours through elementary school, standing with my mom during blood drives, and of course visiting on my birthday, going to the Old Rebel Show.

So, I want to say, to his family who shared him with Greensboro, thank you for letting him be part of my family.

I also remember Dave on WFMY News 2 while we were watching our black & white tv. He was a great person and will be dearly missed. My prayers and condolences go out to the family.

Dave i watch you on t.v. when it was black white and i all ways watch the weather you willed be missed by a lot of people God Bless your family DOT and SLIM STEWART

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.

I REMEMBER WATCHING MR.DAVID C.WRIGHT ON THAT OLD BLACK AND WHITE T.V. WHEN I WAS A CHILD AT 6.00 CLOCK .
THANK YOU

I remember Dave from his TV days and always enjoyed his weather and news reports, especially the early days and I also remember him from times at Belews Lake. He was a fine man and I liked and respected him very much.

I'm 68 years young and I well remember
Dave Wright, bought shirts at the clothing store when I was a kid of 16.

I also well remember him on WFMY-TV as the weather man and cirlce k. RIP Dave.

I didn't know Dave personally; however, I remember him well from his TV career in Greensboro. (In addition to the "Dave Wright, good-night," I also remember him saying, "Marco, you're such a silly polar bear" as Santa.) I listen to his son, Alan's teachings on WTRU radio every day, and I never knew they were related. Both Dave and Alan have been used mightily by God to enhance the lives of others and increase His Kingdom. My prayer for the family is to feel the divine peace and comfort of God as they experience the transition of Dave's life from this earth to his heavenly Father.

Dave was a consummate talent--acting, cartooning, writing--and making us laugh.
I enjoyed the projects we worked on together at GSHS-skits, Playmakers, and a WFMY-TV weekly show HIGH TIME. It was an honor to know him as long as we did.

Sorry for your loss, I remember Coach Wright from First Baptist Church football days.

I remember Dave fondly from our salad days at Greensboro Senior High. He was class of 1952 and I was 1953. I remember skits he did on stage with Norma Veeney.
I am so sorry for your loss and am sure you have many loving memories of David.

Mr. Wright came to my 8th grade class at Proximity Jr. Hight School back in 1968 to talk to us about weather. I simply called and asked him to come speak and he agreed. It was a big thrill for our class for him to come. Over the years Mr. Wright was a big part of my life in all of his capacities at channel 2. The family is in my prayers, may God give you all comfort during this difficult time,

We were so sorry to hear of your loss. The thoughts of many are with you at this time of sorrow.
