My deepest and sincere condolences for the passing of a great friend, leader and person. Dr. COL Inez Wright was a strong person she dedicated her life to not only the community but to the military. She provided expert dental care to all, even to the ones who could not afford it. She will truly be missed by all that knew her. She was a professional, leader, a good person, a giver, and one that wanted you to have a pretty smile. It has been a pleasure knowing you and your selfless service to others will be missed. You earned those wings, fly amongst the stars because your life on earth was inspirational to to others. You fought a good battle now you can Rest In Peace.

Dr. Inez Wright was a very dedicated, hard worker. She took her craft serious. She loved what she did. She was a very great Dentist. It was an honor to work with her. She gave me an opportunity that I probably would not have had any where else. I love her and I'm going to miss her. Thank you DR. Wright for everything.
