IN LOVING MEMORY OF
Thelma Rae
(Allen) Wright
November 14, 1930 – October 29, 2021
Thelma Rae Wright "Sweetie"
Walworth: Passed away on Friday, October 29, 2021 at the age of 90. Thelma was born in Macedon, NY on Friday, November 14, 1930 to the late Lewis and Edna "Robinson" Allen. She was predeceased by her husband of 70 years, Fred. Thelma was the mother of ten; June (John) Abeel, Deborah Vincent, Gail (Mike Bramble) Wright, Alan Wright, Joyce (Jim) Moore, Wayne (Kathy) Wright, Jill (Scott) Mangino, Gary Wright, Karen Hopseker and Amy Schultz; 40 grandchildren, 30 great grandchildren, extended family and friends.
Thelma followed the 4 "Fs"; Fair, Firm, Fond, and Frank. She lived by the "Golden Rule, 'do unto others as you would have done unto you'." She could be heard saying to "straighten up and fly right"! Thelma was a wonderful mother and homemaker. She enjoyed crafts, and working on quilts. She encouraged people to have a hobby to do in their quiet time. Thelma was involved in her church and taught religious education. She was involved with 4H, and even had some of her crafts entered into the Wayne County Fair held each year in Palmyra, NY. Thelma always let people know that the door was open to her home. She will be missed but there is joy in knowing that she has been reunited with her husband Fred.
