Sue Kay Reeder
Sue Kay Reeder, 75, passed away in her home in Arlington on Tuesday, July 23, 2019.
There will be Memorial service in honor of Sue Kay's life on Tuesday, July 30, 2019 at 2:00 p.m. in the Chapel of Wade Family Funeral HOme, 4140 W. Pioneer Parkway, Arlington, Tx 76013.
Sue Kay was a loving and devoted wife to her husband Keith for over 26 years, a second marriage for them both. Sue Kay and Keith met in AA and conquered that challenge together. They both loved going to the horse races, and at one time owned a horse with their friends.
They married in 1984, the same year as Keith’s youngest daughter, Lisa, and Sue Kay told Keith “we’ve got to get married before they do, so people wont say you came with woman you live with.”
Sue Kay was very competitive and loved playing games with family especially at Christmas. She loved a good bargain and even had a bumper sticker that said “If you think money can’t buy happiness, you don’t know where to shop.”
Sue Kay was by Keith’s side until his death in 2009. Before his death, he wrote her a very sweet love letter thanking her for taking such good care of him.
After Keith’s death, she began playing Bridge, and within a short time became a Life Master, and if you enjoy Bridge you know what an accomplishment that is.
She loved her daughter Julie, and adored her granddaughter Salina. She dearly loved the family that Keith brought into her life. She loved gift giving and taught us that each present should be in original wrapping and that was part of the fun of opening gifts from her.
We didn’t expect to lose her so soon, but she knows that there are people here who love her and will miss her immensely. As Sue Kay would say “When everything refuses to go right, go left.”

Woodring Wright
Woodring Erik Wright died on August 2, 2019 in Arlington, Texas of multiple myeloma, 13 years after its initial diagnosis.
Funeral: 4:00 p.m. Thursday, August 8, at Wade Family Funeral Home, 4140 W. Pioneer Parkway, Arlington. Visitation: 6-8 p.m. Wednesday, August 7, at the funeral home.
He was born on June 21, 1949 in San Francisco, and grew up in Lawrence, Kansas, where his parents, M. Erik Wright and Beatrice Ann (Posner) Wright, were Professors of Psychology at the University of Kansas. His joy in living, multiple talents, inventive exploration of nature were expressed throughout his life in every role, including his scientific career, where he repeatedly developed new techniques as he pursued his exploration into two fields: muscle differentiation and telomeres and their role in aging and cancer. Colleagues from around the world have praised his exceptional qualities as a scientist: simultaneously rigorous and innovative, and described him as ‘inspirational.’ His passionate interest in scientific research extended to his own case; undergoing 17 therapies and volunteering to serve as patient #1 in CAR-T BCMA immunotherapy. As one colleague commented “he supervised and determined his treatments just as we might expect of the consummate scientist we admire and love.”
He earned his bachelor’s degree at Harvard in 1970 and his Ph.D. and M.D. degrees at Stanford University in 1974 and 1975. From 1975 to 1978 he was a post-doctoral fellow at the Institut Pasteur in Paris. In 1978, he accepted a position at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, was tenured and promoted to Associate Professor and full Professor, and held the Southland Financial Corporation Distinguished Chair in Geriatric Research after 2001. His research was published in more than 320 journal articles, reviews and book chapters and resulted in 27 patents related to methods for the diagnosis, treatment and analysis of telomere length, telomerase activity, and anti-cancer therapies.
He reveled in using his talents in every field, frequently combining them. He wrote poems and songs as a high school student, performed in coffee houses as a college student, and taught first year medical students in the Biology of Cells and Tissue course with the assistance of songs whose lyrics he had written to help them memorize the material while accompanying himself on the guitar. They voted five times to give him a teaching award. His love of animals ranged from childhood pets (including a weasel, pigeons, a crow, and snakes) to a squirrel who accompanied him to medical school to a series of beloved dogs.
It was as a loving husband, father and grandfather that he found his greatest happiness. He is survived by his wife of 47 years Beth, his sister Colleen Rand, his sons Benjamin and Joshua, two grandsons Bradley and Cameron, and other family members, friends and others whose lives he touched.
