C. Todd Wright

With deep sorrow, we announce the passing of Todd Wright on January 7, 2026, at the age of 60. Todd was born on January 27, 1965, in Gadsden, Alabama, and lived a life devoted to hard work, integrity, and family.

Todd began working at Wright Hearing Center at the age of 16, a business founded by his father and later took over ownership. Todd worked alongside his two sons who continue to help run the business today. Todd was also active in the hearing industry, serving on multiple professional boards. He also proudly served nine years in the United States Army. Known for his strong work ethic and dependability, always taking pride in providing for those he loved. Outside of work, he enjoyed boating, fishing, spending time at the beach, cheering on Alabama football, and listening to music—especially Kenny Chesney. He especially treasured time spent with his wife and grandchildren.

Above all, Todd was a devoted husband, father, grandfather, and brother. He was known for his steady presence, kindness, and willingness to help others.

Todd was preceded in death by his parents, Sharon Gale Pfister and Clarence W. Wright, and his sister, Marie L. Hendrix.

He is survived by his loving wife of 42 years, Brenda E. Wright; his children, Joshua Wright (Carlie Theodoroy), Matthew Wright (Jackie); his grandchildren, Hayes Wright, Griffin Reeves, Ellis Wright, and Jack Wright; and his brother, James Warren Wright (Dana), special Mother-in-Law, Frances Nelson; and numerous nieces and nephews.

A service celebrating Todd’s life will be held on January 11, 2026, at 2:00 p.m. at Collier-Butler Funeral Home, with visitation from 12:00 p.m. until 2:00 p.m. Burial will follow at Williams Southside Funeral Home.

Pallbearers will be Jimmy Wayne Warren, David Ellis, Wayne Kate, Dwayne Ellis, Jarren Wright, and Warren Wright. Zach Harris will serve as an honorary pallbearer.

Memorials may be made to Shriners Children’s Hospital. The family extends special thanks to Rich and Sarita Tanner, Rosa and Corey Foster, and Tammy and Daryl McClure for their support.

Todd will be deeply missed and fondly remembered by all who knew him.
