Born on November 9, 1967, in Lynchburg, he was the son of the Late Judy and Ernest Wright Sr. In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his wife, Monica R. Wright, his precious beloved son, Kyle J. Wright, and four siblings Laura, Michelle, Lisa, and Tina.
Left to continue his legacy are his three children, James “Cam” Wright, Lysa Meeks (Tory), and Katy Wright and a step daughter, Carrie. In addition to his children, Buck leaves behind five dearest grandchildren, Torin, Trevor, Layla-Nicole, Alexis, and Eden (Kaitlyn). Buck loved his grandchildren with all his heart. Buck is survived by four brothers, Jeff Wright, Jeremy Wright (Crystal), Shawn Wright (Katherine), Josh Wright; one sister, Erica Sowards, and many uncles, aunts, nieces, nephews, and friends! Buck also leaves behind three best friends who he held near and dear to his heart, Roger and Melissa Cash and Crystal Adams.
Buck was employed by RMJ Machine Technologies and loved working with the team that he could always count on. With over 40 years of machinery experience, Buck embraced sharing his wealth of knowledge. In Buck's spare time, you could always find him on his bass boat or in the woods. Buck was an avid outdoorsman, who loved the sport of hunting and fishing. Buck was a member of First Baptist Church Of Evington where he rejoiced in his relationship with the Lord.
Although those that loved Buck are heartbroken, we find comfort that he is now rejoicing in the arms of the Lord and his precious son.
