Father of Douglas G. WRIGHT, whose obituary follows:
MISSOULA - Douglas G. Wright, beloved husband, father, grandfather, brother and friend, passed away peacefully from complications of leukemia, on Wednesday, Nov. 3, 2010, with his loving family by his side.
Doug began his life in Lubbock, Texas, on March 24, 1943, born to Clarence and Billie Wright. He was one of five children who grew up in Vancouver, Wash. He has made Missoula his home since 1963.
He lived life to the fullest with his loving wife Phyllis, creating a lifetime of memo-ries during their years together. They shared a special companionship, enjoying many of the same passions, some of which were antiquing, rock hounding and, of course, Doug's favorite, Steelhead fishing. They were never at a loss for things to talk about.
Doug will always be remembered for his passion for life, love of people and his incredible walk with the Lord.
Doug's legacy includes his soul mate, Phyllis Wright; son Curtis Wright; daughters, Cari Thrapp, Corin Schneider, Trena Gauci (Michael), Ronlyn Howe (Scott), Morgan Barndt (Jim), and Lynette Kerpon(Dave); sisters, Eva Schram, Shirley Gilbert, and Dot Warner (Jim); as well as 12 grandchildren and two great-grandchildren.
A celebration of his life will be held at 1 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 13, at the Christian Life Center in Missoula, with a refreshment reception to immediately follow.
