Born in the East End of London in 1938 to Walter "Sonny" Wright and Jane Sarah Wright, Terry was one of four boys.
Terry was an entrepreneur, moving the family to the United States in 1977 to start a business. He was a man of few words, yet he had an ability to make people laugh with corny and oft-repeated jokes. He loved to travel, entertain, cook, read, dance embarrassingly to Greek music, and spend time with his family. He had fond memories of his days in England, especially his time spent at the Crown and Manor Boys Club. Terry was a most loyal Arsenal Football Club fan, second only to his brother Sid. He was an intelligent and quiet inspiration to us all.
He is preceded in death by his parents and brother Sonny. His surviving relatives include devoted wife, Lily Sang-Wright; brothers Harry and Sidney "Sid"; children, Martin Wright, Jimmy Wright, Susanne White, Louise Overcash and Katie Wright; eight grandchildren; and four great-grandchildren.
The family would like to thank the wonderful support from Emerald Care and Hospice of Union County who brought joy and a huge amount of dignity to him during the last months of his life.
A service will be held on Monday, March 31st, at 11:00 a.m. at Palmetto Funeral Home, 2049 Carolina Place Drive, Fort Mill, SC 29708.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Hospice of Union County, 700 W. Roosevelt Blvd., Monroe, NC. 28110.
