Obituary for Harriet Ann Wright
We are sad to announce the death of Harriet Ann Wright, 94, of Monte Vista, Colorado on November 25, 2022. Harriet passed away in Del Norte, Colorado surrounded by family after a short illness.
Harriet was born to Frank and Esta Pepper and raised in the San Luis Valley. Harriet was a loving wife to Headlee Wright. She loved the farm, the mountains and her garden. Earlier in life she loved to remodel homes, reupholster furniture, and hunt for arrowheads. She loved to cook and was an avid reader. She loved to sing and was a member of the women’s barbershop quartet called Sweet Adelines. She played the piano well into her 90’s. However, what we remember most about Harriet was her Christian faith. She was an active member of Valley Church of the Nazarene. Hers was always to love and counsel others in need, especially young married couples. She thought of them as “her kids” and treated them as such. We will miss her.
She is survived by her children, Alan and Kim, her grandchildren, Michelle Ward (Bo), Jacque Pepper (Kelby), Jennifer Wright and Mark Wright, 11 great grandchildren, 3 great great grandchildren, and several nieces and nephews.
Her funeral will be held at the Valley Church of the Nazarene on Saturday December 3, 2022 at 11:00 am. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Valley Church of the Nazarene in care of the funeral home office. To express condolences, please visit www.rogersfunerals.com
