Jeffrey Wright Obituary

Jeffrey Gilbert Wright

Jeffrey Gilbert Wright, age 67, of Toledo, OH passed away peacefully at Ebeid Hospice on Sunday, July 25, 2021. Jeff was born on February 28, 1954 to Ray E. and Leona M. Wright.

Jeff is survived by his loving mother, Leona Wells; beloved daughter, Pamela Wright; sister, Linda Topel (Duane); half-sisters, Heather Cameron (Chris), Barbara Styslinger (Bill); many nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends. Jeff was preceded in death by his father, Ray E. Wright.

Jeff grew up with a very tight knit family. Despite having chased him with a frying pan while growing up, his sister, Linda, became his best caregiver, advocate, and friend. Jeff met and married Karen Mann; together they welcomed daughter Pamela. Jeff had great work ethic and enjoyed being the "toast master" for breakfast fundraisers at VFW post #2984 in Northwood where he had many friends. He loved being with family and friends and his kind smile will be greatly missed.

A memorial will be held on Sunday, August 8, 2021 from 2 p.m. – 5 p.m. at VFW post #2984 in Northwood; family and friends welcomed. Memorial donations can be made to VFW post #2984 or Ebeid Hospice.
