Gregory “G Dub” Wright any time he could.
He will be greatly missed by Office.
Olson
Greg passed away after a
nine-month valiant fight against
pancreatic cancer.
He was born in Portland,
OR, but grew up in Vernonia, OR on
the family dairy.
Greg loved the outdoors
– hunting, clamming, crabbing,
mushrooming, but fishing was
always #1; from trout to sturgeon,
he enjoyed it all. Greg loved fishing
for salmon and steelhead on Dibblee
Beach and would go sturgeon fishing
his mom Sally, second mom Frankie,
sisters Debbie, Kim, Tracy (Mike)
and Linell, nieces, nephews, Aunt
Mary, uncles, cousins and ‘chosen
brothers.’
A celebration of Greg’s
life will be held at Dibblee Beach,
Rainier, OR on Saturday, May
16, 2015 at 3:00 PM. Please

or email Tracy Anderson at

than ever. Maybe some of you were
called and participated in their survey.
They used this same tactic the
last time a proposal came up and we
fell for it. Shame on us!!

recent Spring Tea last Saturday a huge
success:
The First Christian Church for
letting us use their facility;
To Katie and Alexa Cook,
who entertained us with their beautiful
songs—in perfect harmony;
To many friends and relatives
who loaned their fine china and trusted
us not to break them;
Vernonia’s Voice for helping
us so much with timely articles and
reminders about the event;
The staff at R&S Market for
selling tickets for us;
And, especially, Thank you
to the ladies of all ages who attended
and made it so much fun for us. From

and fun. Your generosity will be
appreciated by college women of
