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).

We are asking friends, former work colleagues, and also folks in the greater Lancaster County, Pa. community to join us in fundraising for the nonprofit Help Hope Live to help with medical and transportation expenses Greg will face immediately after surgery, as well as the first critical years following the procedure.

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.
