Don was a machinist by trade, and was passionate about building guns, making knifes and doing leathercraft. He enjoyed helping others with their gun projects, a broken chain saw or getting a snow mobile to run. Don enjoyed visiting with friends and family at the home, where it was never a dull moment. He also loved to fish, although not a hunter, he was always willing to assist with harvesting a deer that his family and friends would bring to him. He was a member of the First Congregational United Church of Christ and was a life member of the NRA. Don is survived by his children, Rosanne (Joseph) Spaulding, Tammy Wright, Donald "Ozzy" (Melissa Wright) Wright; grandchildren, Rose McKenna Wright-Hampshire and Samantha Mae Wright; and his twin brothers, Walter (Judith) and Mason Wright. He was preceded in death by his parents; and his beloved wife, Fran B. Wright whom he married in 1961.
