Mr. Wright was born on August 2, 1968 to Albert Lee and Bettie Sue. He married the love of his life, Veronica Manley Wright, on November 19, 1994. He was a talented painter, dedicated family man and a versatile craftsman, working in various remodel jobs. Alex found great joy in pursuing his hobbies, which included fishing, hunting and muscle cars. These activities brought him closer to nature and provided the opportunity to bond with friends and family. Additionally, he cherished the time spent working on mechanic projects with his son, which was a shared passion and created lasting memories.

Above all, Alex took pride in his role as a grandfather. Recently, he embraced a healthier lifestyle, inspired by the love and strength he drew from his two beautiful granddaughters, who ignited a determination in him to quit smoking just four months ago. His commitment to being the best Grandpa ever was evident to everyone around him.
