Edna WRIGHT Obituary

WRIGHT, Edna As the song, Jealous of the Angels goes: We didn't know that today would be our last or that we had to say goodbye to you so fast. We are all so numb, that we can't feel anymore. Prayin' you'd just walk back through that door and tell us that we were only dreaming. You're not really gone as long as we believe that there will be another Angel around the throne tonight. So, on March 21, 2017, God gave Edna Wright her wings to join the Angels around the throne that night. Edna was born on August 12, 1940, she attended Douglas Public Schools and graduated from Douglas High School in 1959. Edna was a cosmetologist and attended beauty college in Tucson; she met the love of her life, Bill Wright and would have been married to him for 55 years in September. Edna will join her two beautiful Angels, Billy and Gina, who are waiting for her to join them around the throne tonight. Preceded in death by her parents, Reynaldo and Ozella Hoffman; sisters, Eluadia Cantua, Maria Christina Rivas and Ozella Posada. She is survived by her husband, Bill Wright; grandchildren, Crisann (Terry) Black, William Wright, Monica Montes and Michael (Becky) Montes; great-grandchildren, Emilio, Gianni, Gino, Sophia and Lorelai; brothers, Henry (Ernie), Armando (Charlo) and Rene (Ruth) Hoffman. Visitation will be held on Monday, March 27, 2017, 5:00 p.m. - 9:00 p.m., Rosary 7:00 p.m. at Carrillo's Tucson Mortuary, South Chapel, 204 S. Stone Ave. Mass will be offered Wednesday, March 29, 2017, 10:00 a.m. at St. Ambrose Church, 300 S. Tucson Blvd. Interment to follow at Holy Hope Cemetery. Arrangements by CARRILLO'S TUCSON MORTUARY.

My heartfelt condolences to Billy Wright and his family in the loss of his beloved Edna. I am indeed saddened to learn of her passing. I have very fond memories of Edna, especially when one would visit her home. She would always welcome me with such a happy smile and made me feel at home right away. She was great cook, a lovely hostess and a wonderful friend. You will always have a special place in my heart, Edna, I shall always cherish your memories. RIP dear friend, until we meet again. Love and blessings to Bill and all your grandchildren and family.
