Eunice Wright was a wonderful woman! I remember Eunice, Bill, and their whole family as being such incredibly valuable members of Community Church in Orleans during the years that my parents pastored there. My parents considered Bill and Eunice to be very dear friends. Mrs. Wright (it is still difficult to call her "Eunice") was my emergency contact number throughout my middle school and high school years, because my family knew that she would drop everything to help if any of us needed assistance. She was warm, supportive and encouraging at all times, not only when I was growing up, but throughout my life. Even once I was married with a family of my own, she would send my husband (Glenn) and me Christmas cards with pictures and humourous little messages to keep us updated on the adventures of the Wright family. In the years since my mother passed away, Eunice continued to call me occasionally to remind me of the good memories that she had of my parents; this meant a great deal to me. She never stopped telling me about her love for her children and grandchildren/great-grandchildren, and spoke longingly of the day that she would see her "honey", Bill, in heaven. I know that Eunice is going to be greatly missed by many, but it is amazing to think that she and Bill are together in heaven with the Lord. Glenn and I wish to extend our love and words of comfort to Kim, Andrew, Karen, and everyone who is part of the extended Wright family. Mrs. Wright loved all of you so much, and was so incredibly proud of you.
Glenn and Mary-Louise (Liira) Marcus
