Very sad to learn of the passing of my friend. I will miss him very much. I made several attempts to find information regarding arrangements but was unable to do so until I received this article a week after his internment. I will use this opportunity to convey condolences to Dell and the Wright family on behalf of myself and members of my family who knew Collin. May he rest in peace.
