Obituary

Dorothy Ann Wright (Miles) passed peacefully on October 21, 2018.

Born in Port Angeles, WA on January 18, 1931 to Loren and Dorothy Miles. The family later moved to Marysville, WA where she grew up and graduated from Marysville High School in 1951.

Dorothy married Raymond Clarence Wright and they had five children. Dorothy was a homemaker while her husband was a professional chef. The family settled in Woodinville, WA in the early 1970's when her husband became ill and she cared for him until his passing.

Dorothy had a deep love for her family, for gardening and travel with her sisters. They often traveled together to Sun River and also to the Oregon coast to purchase tuna from the boats and can to share with family and friends. It was a wonderful tradition shared with her loving sisters.

Dorothy loved to bake cookies for family and friends and was known for her love of frogs. Dorothy also had a great passion for bingo in her
younger years and was able to enjoy that passion once again during her stay at Newport's Long Term Care.

Newport Hospital Long Term Care staff is a group of the most amazing people we have in our community and our family will forever cherish them. They are family to us now!

Dorothy was a wonderful loving Daughter, Sister, Mother, Wife and Grandmother. She was one of the kindest people I have ever known. She loved to give to others and would often give her last penny to help another. She was the embodiment of kind hearted.

Dorothy is preceded in death by her Mother (Dorothy Miles), her Father (Loren Miles), her Sister (Roberta Arndt), her Sister (Jean Pemberton), her Son (Dennis Owen Wright), her Daughter (Rayeann Brandt), her Grandson (Jeremy Wright) and her Grandson (Joshua Wright). Dorothy is survived by her Sister (Mary Kersten) of Olympia, her Brother (Rodney Miles & Daphne) of Marysville, her Son (Loren Roland Wright & Darla) of Cle Elum, her Son (Sidney Joe Wright & Sarah) of North Dakota, her Daughter (Theresa Marie Bryant & Zanlan) of Newport, her Grandchildren (Stacee, Michael, George & Deidra, Ed, Jon, Simon, Jessica, Gregory, Ryan, Shannon, Jesse, Raymond, Brandon, Nicole & Jake, Melissa, Kayla) and many Great Grandchildren.

Our family will celebrate Mom's life next spring with a trip to Chumstick Mountain outside of Leavenworth where Mom loved to go collect Lewisia plants for her gardens and where our family has made a tradition of hiking and picnicking.
