Margaret J. Wright, 91, passed from this life on Feb. 23, 2014. Born to Thomas and Alma Bollingberg on Dec. 29, 1922, in Arlington, Wash., she was the eldest of eight children.

She was a homemaker and loving mother and grandmother. She never drove but managed to make all of her son’s baseball and basketball games. After the untimely death of her husband of 34 years, Ralph Wright, in 1976, she dedicated her life to assisting in the raising of her grandchildren.

She was also preceded in death by six siblings and brother in-law David Wright and sister in-law “Dolly” Ruth Wright.

She is survived by her sons Steven of Coupeville, Wash. and Dennis of Piketon, Ohio; her youngest brother Kenneth Bollingberg of Sutherland, Ore.; five grandchildren; 12 great-grandchildren and one great-great granddaughter.

She was a wonderful wife, mother and grandmother and she will be missed by us all. She was loved and respected by all who knew her.

The family would like to thank the owner and staff of the “Homestead,” an adult family home in Coupeville. The care each of you gave Margaret was amazing. You girls are great. You have our love and appreciation, the family of Margaret J. Wright.
