Re: In memory of Glenn Wright of NYC Team 1880...

It seems that Glenn Wright was a beautiful being, I'm sorry that I never knew him, and I'm sorry that now, I never will. We should look to Glenn who, even before this tragic accident, was busy helping people to make the world a little better in his own little way.

The thoughts and prayers of team 1261 are with Glenn's friends and family, and in the hopes that his achievements will not soon be forgotten.
I think Mr. Wright was building a community of hope. He was building it with tools wrought from strength of character, bearing the weight of responsibility, and understanding the difference one person can make.

We can honor his life, and those he impacted in such a deep and powerful way, by trying to understand that one person and his or her actions - can make a difference.

My prayers go out to the family, the team, and the community.
