Ovedia Wright
(June 12, 1897 – November 10, 1918)

Mrs. John Wright
This community was shocked to learn Monday morning that the angel of death had for a second time entered the home of Mr. and Mrs. John Wright, this time the young mother having succumbed to the evil malady at 11:45 Sunday night after a brief illness.
Mrs. Wright was born June 12, 1897. As a little babe she was adopted by Mr. and Mrs. Cyrus Evenson, who reared her most tenderly and lovingly. On June 9th, 1912 she was confirmed by the last Rev. O. T. Lee and in March 1914 became the bride of John Wright. She was always of a cheery, generous nature; and she and her husband will be greatly missed by relatives and home friends and the little daughters who are now being tenderly cared for by their grandparents. Mr. and Mrs. John Wright’s wedded life her was short, but after only a brief interval have been joined together in death. Rev. Hans Fosnes, their pastor conducted brief, but impressive services Monday afternoon and interment was made in beautiful Sunset Rest.
