Mr. Wright was one of the teachers I never forgot. He was one of my elementary teachers in Baldwin I really looked up too. I often reflect on what I experienced from his class and use them in my class. To the family remeber Rev. 21:3,4 and look forward to that time.

Mr. Wright was my sixth grade teacher (1978-79). Of all the teachers I ever had, he was by far my favorite. I have thought of him often over the years. I'm so sorry i wasn't able to tell him that before now. May God bless your family.

May you allow the Holy Spirt to comfort you in the way that I know He can. I pray that God's peace and joy will prevail in your life, knowing that the real man still lives on. I pray that you will receive the strength from God to think on the fact that our God took the sting out of death. I pray that you will allow God to be the husband that He promised to be to you. I love you and your family and we will continue to lift you up in our prayers. Pastor Marion & Mrs. Hazel Clayton & Christlike Ministries

Mr. Wright was my sixth grade teacher (1976-77). Of all the teachers I ever had, he was by far my favorite. He pushed me to be the best that I could be & refused to accept any less from me. He was the type of teacher that inspired and encouraged you and delighted in his students acheivements. I have thought of him often over the years. He was truly one of the greats!

Georgette,
It has been a true blessing knowing you and Ira. Ira was such a nice man and was pleasant even when he didn't feel well. He was a very caring person, always concerned about others. His smile and laughter were contagious. I enjoyed being his Therapist. We often talked about you- he always said how grateful he was to have you as his wife. He loved you dearly. I know you miss him deeply but he is in God's hands now, feeling no pain or sorrow. May you be comforted in this knowledge.

Hello Wright family and loved ones,
Mr. Wright was my sixth grade teacher, 1983-1984. I never saw him again after that year, but I must tell you all that I have always remembered him over the last 17 years, and I have spoken of him often. In fact, I was just speaking of him a few weeks ago to my in-laws, telling a funny story of something he said to me once in class. I do not make a habit of remembering my elementary school teachers, or any of my teachers for that matter, but Mr. Wright has remained eternally vivid in my memories. He was a wonderful teacher, funny, playful, and down to earth. I am sorry for your loss, and I pray that the incredible impact he made in the lives of so many children brings you much comfort during this difficult time.
Warmest regards and sympathy,
Angelia (Johnston) Schultz
