Ryan Wright Obituary

Ryan Malcolm Wright
09/07/1983 - 02/01/2026
Ryan Malcolm Wright passed away on Sunday, February 1, 2026. Born September 7, 1983 at Midland Memorial Hospital, he lived life to its fullest for 42 years. He lives on in the hearts of his family, friends and people whose lives he touched. He was smart, had an incredible sense of humor, was extraordinarily creative and had a heart for others; he will never be forgotten. Ryan struggled with the disease of addiction but never abandoned his spiritual path, maintaining close contact with his mentors in faith, including Father Jerry Kramer and Stacy Kramer and Pastor Moses Mugaguzi and Jane Mugaguzi, Fort Portal, Uganda. Even as he fought the disease, Ryan helped countless others find the path of sobriety in Alcoholics Anonymous. We know today that he has been warmly received in the loving arms of our Savior Jesus Christ and he has found that peace that passes all understanding. He probably had Saint Peter laughing hilariously within minutes of arriving at the gates of Heaven.

Ryan is survived by his parents, Max and Rosemary Wright of Midland, Texas, his sister, Cathleen Annice Wright Griffith, his niece, Marie Griffith, and nephew, Brooks Griffith of Dallas and a number of aunts. uncles and cousins.

A memorial service will be celebrated at 10:00 a.m. on Saturday, February 7, 2026, at Christ Church Anglican, 5501 N. Midkiff, Midland, Texas.

The family requests that memorials be directed to Christ Church Anglican, Springboard Center or Crosswalk Advocacy in Midland.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.
