To the entire Wright family,
It saddened us to hear of Coo's transition to her eternal home. But we take comfort in knowing she's home with her heavenly Father. We loved her but God loved her best. May the memory of her radiant smile comfort you in your hour of bereavement. We love you all!
The McKeiver's, Eugene, Karen "Dennie", Eugene T. & Ciara

At this hour we don't need new light but new sight, not new paths but new strength; we thank God for Martina's life and must draw nearer to him; loving the Wright family with a tender heart and humble mind

To the Wright Family,

I was looking at another obituary when I ran across Martina's name and I was blown away. My family lived on First St. & I was a classmate of Sluggo. I have such fond memories of "Coo" and my thoughts and prayers are with her son and the rest of the Wright Family during your bereavement hours. God is still on the throne.

Thomas, Sluggo, BJ & the Rest of the Family:

No person is ever truly alone. Those who live no more, whom we loved, echo still within our thoughts, our words, and our hearts. My the peace which comes from the memories of love shared comfort you now & the days ahead.

Luv
Fenny & The Maynor Family

My darling sister Martina (Coo),

I never wanted to see you cry and never wanted to say goodbye to my sister/bestfriend. You are the advice I seek and have sought on so many decisions. I will truly have an angel speaking to me. You have made sure that Thomas and I grew to productive citizens and here we are strutting what you gave us, maturity and faith. So long for now my sister and I will see you in your mansion. My flesh cries but my spirit celebrates. Love to you always.

Your Lil Sis,
Michele
