Thomas A. "Tom" Wright, 69, of Union passed away Sunday, November 10, 2019 at his home.

Tom was born January 20, 1950 in Lonedell to M.B. Wright and wife Alice (Patton).

On July 23, 1977 he was united in marriage to Donna Manning in Washington.

Tom loved his family and his junkyard; they were both something he'd never give up. In Franklin County, his family had a junkyard or salvage yard since 1950. His service to the community over the years provided parts, repairs, trucking and last recycling as it is now.

He always found time for his family and to help others as well. There were wonderful water adventures that changed as the children grew, lots of time in the woods camping also. Many wonderful events dotted our lives and many friendships were acquired along the way. There was always something to do.

He will always be remembered and missed as husband, father, pa, brother and friend by all those he cared about.

Tom was preceded in death by his parents, M.B. and Alice Wright.

He is survived by his beloved wife, Donna Wright of Union; three children, Gregory Wright of Dittmer, Emily Wright of Union and Thomas Wright and wife Breanne of Union; one brother, Ira Wright and significant other Kristin of Pahrump, NV.; two sisters, Angela Wright of Sullivan and Rhonda Wright and significant other Chad of St. Clair; one grandson, Dylan Thomas Wright; other relatives and many friends.

Memorial donations to family for a cause of their choice to be determined later.
