Guys,
I've been looking for John Wright's Memorial page..
I remember someone wrote a nice artical about John..
I've been on Yahoo and Google and can't find the link,
or,anything about John..
I searched Az's past post, but, none had it and his Old Link to
WrightCueCompany's link is too old and doesn't seen to work or exist..

I'm doing a tribute to John, and, need the info..
It will be about a week before I finish..
John was very good to me and I enjoyed all his Cue Photos..
He was also a regular client of mine..
So, we grew quite close (Over the Phone.. No Internet at that time)

If you love cues, you will love this site...
Thanks for viewing and helping..

Not related to your quest, but a story to share. I was in the basement of John Wright's home in Palatine looking at some cues he had available. He got a phone call from Allen Hopkins and after a minute or so he handed me the phone and told me talk to Allen. So I tried to make chit-chat with Allen while John looked something up for him. :smile: I recall that Allen was on his way to the US Open. This would have been about 1988 or so.

John was a character.

Seems to me that I have some pictures he sent me of cues that he had for sale at the time. Damned if I know where they are but I might be able to find them, along with the envelope.
