I agree Ray left a great legacy in his sons. He worked hard, played hard and loved hard. He will be truly missed. Until we meet again I will remember you as my happy go lucky, always smiling little brother. Inspirational, brave, courageous, a fighter to the end, are only a few words to describe a great person. My deepest sympathies go out to Deanne and his boys whom he loved more than anything.

May the promise found at Isaiah 25:8 bring some comfort in the death of Ray Wright. "He will swallow up death forever. The Sovereign Lord will wipe away the tears from all faces." Just imagine, no more pain and grief due to the death of a love one! By means of the Kingdom that Jesus Christ taught us to pray for at Matthew 6:9,10; God is going to remove sickness, old age and death from the human family. God's original purpose for the earth being a paradise will be realized.
