It is with profoundly heavy hearts that we announce the death of our dear brother, Tyler Wright. Tyler had the cheerful heart of a servant leader. Whether he was on staff at Camp Comer, working tirelessly with Coosa Shows, serving as a lodge officer or a section officer, or helping create some of the Order's first national virtual events, he accepted the most difficult tasks, and he always rose to the occasion. Tyler joined Pack 53 as a Tiger Cub in 2009. He later earned his Arrow of Light, going on to receive his Eagle Scout award in 2018 from Troop 160 under the guidance of his dad and Scoutmaster, Mr. Lamar Wright. He had recently helped his sister, Emma, complete her own Eagle Scout award to become part of the inaugural class of female Eagle Scouts. He was a Vigil Honor recipient from Coosa Lodge and was near the end of his first term as the SR-9 Section Chief, serving Arrowmen across 11 lodges in Georgia and Alabama. Tyler's cheerful nature touched the lives of hundreds of Scouts in our council, across the section, and across the country. His legacy of leadership and service will echo throughout our lodge for many years. He was loved by nearly all who knew him, and his light has gone out far too soon. Tyler is survived by his parents, Amanda and Lamar, and his sister, Emma; grandparents, Jerry (Kathy) Young and James Wright. Funeral services will be held on Wednesday, March 3, 2021 at 2:00 PM from the Union Hill Baptist Church with J. R. Phillips, Eric Sullivan and Seth Hill officiating. Burial will follow in Oak Hill Cemetery. The family will receive friends on Tuesday, March 2, 2021 from 5:30 PM until 8:00 PM at Union Hill Baptist Church.
