It is wonderful to again pay tribute to Mrs. Dorothy B. Wright, my incredible homeroom teacher as well as art teacher. I smile because of the fond memories I have and will continue to treasure for the rest of my life. I hope to one day publish some children's books and utilize my artistic gifts and talents to assist in overseeing the illustrations of my works. I believe that the gifts and talents that I possess as well as some of my classmates and former students of Mrs. Wright, live on in our work. Many of us have no doubt shared some of our techniques with other generations and they will in turn teach future generations. I've been blessed more than I could ever put into words. Mrs. Wright made a profound impact on my life and I will forever be grateful

Mrs. Wright will always hold a special place in my heart. She loved us and wanted us to succeed and do well in life. I, too, loved her and was heartbroken when we had to transfer into another homeroom class after being with her only one year. She made such a huge impact on my life. I reunited with Mrs. Wright my senior year when I took art under her capable tutelage. I won a second place red ribbon from the Coastal Carolina Fair for a painting that hangs proudly over the mantle in our family home. Some of her brush strokes are on that winning painting which taught me so much about painting with acrylics. She gave us the freedom and opportunities to choose as she guided us as far as she could. Some educators are in our lives for brief seasons, but the impact of others stay with us the rest of our lives. Dorothy B. Wright's impact and influence will stay with me for the rest of mine. She will always be a part of me. Love and blessings to all her family and friends. May God comfort and keep you.

What wonderful memories I have of Aunt Dot from childhood and growing up. Her giftedness as an artist was evident throughout their home and I was in awe! I told her even 2 years ago, "Aunt Dot, I can't afford to buy any of your art but I'm saving my money!" She would smile and laugh. We will miss you very much and are praying for Uncle Reggie, children and grandchildren especially and our mom Iris who will miss her big sis very much. Thank you for the love and joy you bought to so many and we will carry these memories in our living. We love you very much, Niece Deborah and Jason and Joy

To Caroline, Roz and Mr Wright and sons. My late father Rev W George Wright and his sister Berneatha Wright Bolden , spoke so many praises of their time at Claflin College and how she was a wonderful cousin. They told us that she was a great artist and they adored her paintings. I witness her work from the gift she gave our sister Marie. We all experience these sad times too frequently and God has help us thru them all. He is there for you too.

Skip, Rosalyn, Caroline, Reggie and Mr. Wright. I am so sorry for you loss. Your Mother was truly a wonderful person and a great Art teacher. I can still remember how she showed her students how to paint the most beautiful pictures then hang them on the fence on Columbus street. Many people stopped to watch and buy them. She taught my sister who did wonderful work herself who then taught kids herself. There's no doubt that the beauty of painting that she shared will pass on for all time. I also remember the many times that I visited her home and she was always the nicest person. We'll all miss her but will never forget her.
