Donald Wayne Wright
ANDREWS — Native West Texas resident Donald Wayne “Donny” Wright, 48, was called home to God on Saturday, April 19, 2003. Donny was born in Monahans, Texas, May 4, 1954, and was preceded in death by his parents, Wayne R. Wright in 1994, and Ouida Boyd Wright in 2002, both longtime residents of Andrews.
Donny first performed in a gospel quartet at age 8, took college-level voice lessons at age 15, leading to a music major with a concentration in voice, a lifelong professional career. After graduating from Andrews High School in 1972, he moved to Nashville to become the lead singer for “Chariot”, a subsidiary group to the “Oak Ridge Boys”, touring mostly in the North Eastern states and Canada.
Upon leaving “Chariot” Donny moved to Houston, embarking on a coast-to-coast solo career before returning to West Texas studying Engineering at Odessa College and working in the oil business. An over 20-year veteran of Amoco, later Altura, Donny was a popular singer for all occasions including the lead in Midland Community Theatre’s “South Pacific” accompanied by full orchestra and “Cats in Concert” only the second performance of “Cats” off Broadway. Donny was planning a tour to promote his latest CD “In His Shoes”, a gospel collection following his “Classic” release of favorites. After receiving a liver transplant in San Antonio April 9, 2003, Donny was a model patient, quickly recovering his strength, quick wit and booming baritone voice until his sudden death in Austin, Texas.
Many, many friends are saddened by his loss. He is survived by a daughter, Summer Angel Wright of Odessa and seven step-children, all of whom he considered his own, a brother Douglas Wright of Gainesville, a sister Denise Wright Baker of Odessa, two nieces and one nephew. His passing is deeply mourned by Carol Winkel of Midland and Austin, closest to him over the last eight years and beside him throughout his triumphs and struggles. He also leaves an “adoptive family” of his late pastor M. R. “Slats” Massey of Pasadena, related by love.
Donny was proud of his affiliation with the Masons and was honored to induct his own father into the organization.
He was employed by Carpenter Corporation, an affiliate of Winkel Enterprises, as a computer program specialist and did private consulting between singing engagements, his true passion and gift.
Services will be at 2 p.m. Wednesday, April 23, 2003, in Calvary Baptist Church in Andrews, Texas, with the Rev. Bill Melton officiating. Burial will follow in the Andrews North cemetery under the direction of McNett Funeral Home. Contributions are invited to assist the Organ Donor Program nearest you or a charity of your choice.
