Obituary
John Neverson Wright, 77, of Nashport, Ohio went home to find peace with his Lord on June 18, 2012.
Born September 8, 1934 in Killbuck, Ohio he was the son of the late Ralph and Ruth (Horner) Wright. John was a faithful member of Hanover Presbyterian Church where he was a former Sunday school teacher. He was also a member of New Home Lodge #338, F. & A. M. of Hanover and was a former Licking County 4-H advisor. He retired in 1986 from Ohio Oil Gathering Corporation where he was a gauger. He enjoyed farming, restoring old tractors and he raised Quarter horses for many years.
His greatest joy in life was his family who survives him. His wife of 57 years, Nancy (Cline) Wright whom he married June 5, 1955; two sons John "Mike" (Mary) Wright of Mercer, Pennsylvania and Joseph M. Wright of Newark, Ohio; a daughter Stacey Wright of St. Louisville, Ohio; seven grandchildren, Andrea (Brad Meyer) Wright, Nathaniel "Nate" (Tanya Smith) Parrill, Kellan (Britney) Wright, Kody (Katie Keck) Wright, Abra Radcliffe, Michael Bush and Rachel (Mick Christy) Atkinson; fifteen great grandchildren, Dustin, Logan, Addison, Mackenzie, Kevan, Mahala, Bryer, Haiden, Elijah, Sierra, Skyler, Summer, Damien, Catalina and Faith; two sisters, Nancy Chew of Killbuck and Jo Ann (Ed) Kline of Mt. Vernon, Ohio; a step-brother, James (Sherry) Lamar of Peachtree, Georgia; a very special aunt, Helen Horner of Zanesville; and many nieces, nephews and cousins.
In addition to his parents he was preceded in death by a sister, Marilyn Wright and a brother in-law, Bill Chew.
Per his request there will be no calling hours or funeral services. However, a casual Celebration of Life will be held at 4:00pm Saturday, June 23, 2012 at the Hanover Presbyterian Church, Hanover, Ohio.
Memorial contributions may be made in John's memory to Hanover Presbyterian Church or to Nationwide Children's Hospital.
The family wishes to say thank you to our family and friends for their love and support and a special thank you to the Rev. Charlsie Ramsey and Lynne McLeish for being at our side during our time of grief.
