To the Wright family, my deepest sympathy for the loss of Warren. I was a coworker of his at Leggett Dept. Store at Tanglewood Mall, I worked in Display
Dept, made store signs for him in the Men's and Boys department. He was one of the most extraordinary gentlemen I had the pleasure of knowing, giving me advice about retirement. He will be sorely missed. May God be with you as you go through this difficult time. Sincerely, Teresa C. Hogan
