Johnny was a lover of all sports and a well known athlete at Section High. He worked with many young athletes as a travel basketball coach. Golf came naturally to him, and he loved being out on the golf course until his back prevented him from being able to do so. One of the greatest joys of his life was helping his son coach middle school basketball and girls’ varsity basketball in previous years. He was proud of his son and grandchildren and never missed an opportunity to brag on them.

He is survived by his mother, Helen Wright; brother, Terry Wright; son, Josh (Megan) Wright; grandchildren, Everly Wright, Hastin Wright; niece, Hannah Greckowski. He was preceded in death by his father, Mickey Wright; brothers, Ray Wright, Ricky Wright, Frankie Wright.
