Cruiser member Wright dies

Posted by James Brosher at 3:28 am on Tuesday, February 9, 2010 | Share | Comment (1)

Crown City Cruiser member Kenny Wright, 70, of Dunkirk, died Thursday at Ball Memorial Hospital in Muncie following an extended illness.

Wright was born on Sept. 17, 1939 in Hartford City to parents Marie M. (Adams) and Gale Luther Wright.

He was a 1957 graduate of Dunkirk High School. He went on to retire as a mechanic at Sears in Muncie. He was a former fire chief of the Redkey Volunteer Fire Department, town board member in Redkey, and a past member of Halfway Lodge F.&A.M. in Redkey.

He was the husband of Frances J. Wright.

Kenneth is survived by three sons, Don D., wife Nancy Jo Wright, of Whitmore Lake, Mich.; Stephen D., wife Brenda Wright, of Crisfield, Md.; Ted A. Wright, of Gaston; and a step daughter, Marsha Collett, of Decatur.

Funeral services will be at 11 a.m. today at the M.J.S. Mortuaries Dunkirk Chapel. Pastor Gary Phillips will officiate. Graveside services will be in Union Cemetery in Eaton.

In November the Cruisers voted to give Wright a lifetime membership to the club.

Our condolences go out to his family at this difficult time.

    Good Morning Jim – - – This is a bad situation! Are you able to post a picture of Kenny Wright?
    I’ve tried to let Tam know and have not had much luck conveying who it was that past away.
    Thanks for your time in advance – - – Dave & Tammy Hernly R.I.P Kenny!
