Our sincere condolences to John I's family. I appreciated his friendship and admired his love for life. I was shocked to learn that my friend of more than 50 years had travelled to his heavenly home. My family will miss him greatly. We will keep you in our prayers.

To: The Family Of John I. Wright
I was certainly shocked to learn of the death of "John I." I was his mailman for years when he resided on Ott St. I recently went by to check on him and learned that he had moved with his daughter in Conyers. I'll always remember John as being "The Life of The Party", constantly reminding us in mock sternness; "don't touch the body"!
He was a scholar, a friend and just an all-around nice guy to know.
You know, we're promised in the Bible that there is soon going to be a resurrection of all our dead loved ones who have fallen asleep in death. This promise was put into place by Jehovah God who provided His Only Begotten Son as our ransomer. I beg you to put faith in this promise, as it is impossible for God to lie.
