Your fellow friend/colleague/community citizen Greg Wright needs your help.

Diagnosed with congestive heart failure and non-ischemic cardiomyopathy in 2007, Greg’s condition has deteriorated since and he will require a transplant sometime in 2020 to survive. (Update: Greg received a donor heart February 27).

I would be remiss if I did not once again say THANK YOU to all my friends, colleagues and family for their amazing support, both during the fundraising drive, and to this day. I am humbled and grateful to each of you who contributed!

It has been a very long while since I last posted. I wanted you to know that I am doing very well over 5 1/2 years since transplant. All my biannual checkups at PennMed Perelman Center in Philadelphia have gone smoothly.I retired at the end of May, 2025 following a three-year stint as a part-time parts delivery driver for a consortium of four auto dealers. Most of my time has been spent caring for my wife, Vicki, who is recovering from stage 3 breast cancer, and for my elderly in-laws. When I do have free moments, I like to travel to historic points here in Pennsylvania. In July, I went to the Flight 93 and Johnstown Flood national memorials. My future plans are to visit the northern tier during fall foliage and the Valley Forge National Park.In 2026, I hope to visit upstate New York and western Massachusetts for a day at historic Saratoga Race Course and a classical concert at Tanglewood in the Berkshires.

Greg:

So sorry to hear of your health issues and hope the new heart has given you new life. I now live in Arizona, having survived a stroke, head-on auto accident (caused by another driver) and major brain tumor surgery all in a span of 1 1/2 years. But I\'m doing fine with 3 businesses, including motivational speaking, designing casual men\'s sportswear and some celebrity representation. Attended Frank Lindeburg\'s memorial 8 years ago and spoke at it. John Masi has been seriously ill for a number of years and everyones\' gone from UCR. Even the athletic program may be disbanded in a couple years.

Wishing you all the best of health and happiness.
