I hope you all get a chance to see Tommy and Mickie Jennings Wright's wedding photo in our Going the Distance gallery. The photo is beautiful. They were married over 50 years and sadly, according to Mickie's caption, Tommy passed away in April of 2019. This is the first we have heard about it. We will work hard to enter Tommy in our In Memory section as fast as we can so you all can post your memories of him.
