Amberly Wright - Online Gedenkwebseite

Amberly,

It is hard to believe that it is 6 years ago today, that I lost you.  You will always be my first born child and daughter and we include you in our family when we talk to anyone .  Just because you are not physically here with us, does not mean that you are not here in spirit.  I remember everything about you.  When we get to these dates to remember you, we have already remembered you all the minutes and hours too, leading up to these memorial dates.

I remember everything about you.  I miss all of it. What I would not give to see, hear, hold and just be with you again.  I wish they had a phone in heaven.  This is just too long of time for me.  I miss you terribly.  We all do, very much. 

We are going to visit you with flowers and a christmas tree today.  Having mexican in your honor and want to celebrate you and what you nean to each of us.

Love you every day and forever!

Mom, Dad, Korbin, Jadalyn and Ridge

JUSTICE for Amberly FAITH Wright 10/7/2010 Victim Impact Statement in Court (Written & Read by Dana Wright) I am Dana Wright, the mother of the VICTIM, Amberly Wright. I am here today as her VOICE...It has been four years forthcoming to get justice served for my daughter's death. There is no peace for my child or closure to our family until justice is sought. As her mother, I gave her the maternal life line into this world. No mother should have to witness seeing their child leave this world before their time or experience the heartache of a maternal bond of mother and child being severed. On November 25, 2006, the day after Thanksgiving, Amberly went out to see a movie with the defendant. Three hours later, I received a phone call that awoke me from being asleep, to learn that Amberly had bee in a car crash. I later arrived at the hospital to discover my child lying there unresponsive and lifeless. She was no longer the vital 18 year old daughter that I knew her to be. The night of the crash, I knew WHO she was with, WHERE she was going, WHAT her plans were and WHEN she would return home. As careful parents we couldn't have been more aware, active and involved in her life. WHAT I didn't know is that DECEPTION would encounter me. The driver deceived me about his age and the stage of license he held. Due to the defendants negligent actions of deception, speed, distraction and inexperience; my daughter is DEPRIVED of having her LIFE. This tragedy has significantly impacted my family. As hard as it has been to be parents losing your first born child, we have had to witness the aftermath of complete devistation upon Amberly's three surviving siblings. Their lives have been turned upside down. The innocence of my children's happiness has been robbed of them. They all exhibit fear and their lives have dramatically changed from who they once were, 4 years ago. They are having to exist and rebuild their lives without their sister. Amberly's brother, lost more than a sister, he lost his best friend. They always got along with one another, never had sibling rivalry with each other, and grew-up extremely close. They had fun playing pranks on one another and would compete to see who was better at it. He looked forward to the future, as he had planned one day that their children would grow-up together and be close cousins. Amberly's younger sister, looked up to her as a rold model and confidant. Her only sister was taken from her. She will never have another sister relationship in her life. Her sister will not be there to share sister secrets, and be her maid of honor in her wedding and be able to go shopping together, just special things that only sisters do with one another. They will never grow into best friends the way that sisters do or be there for each other when they experience lifes common experiences together. Amberly's younger brother, looked up to her as a second mother They were much alike, she took care of him and doted over him. He gets his love of reading from his sister reading to him. He will grow-up having less memories of her, as he is her oungest sibling. He will never forget her angelversary date, as she died December 1st and his birthday is 4 days later. I'll never forget him waking up saying that his sister came to him to wish him Happy Birthday, that she didn't forget, right after loosing her. Amberly's father struggles every day with knowing that in that one moment of her life, that he couldn't be there to protect his little girl. She favored her dad in looks, laughter and sense of humor. He will no longer be able to share jokes or watch movies with her. He will not be able to hear her amzing voice when she sung or to give her a ride to places that she wanted to go. Her dad stayed vigil to her bedside in the hospital for 7 days until she passed away. As Amberly's mother, I have had to be the rock in the family to carry everyone through this tragedy. She was a lot like me and favored me by being strong, caring and loving. We had a very close relationship. I never missed a moment in her life until the day she passed away. My favorite moment in life, is the day that she made me a mother, I dedicated myself to being the best mom to her. I'll never forget how I felt when the doctor told us that we lost her. I flet my heart crush and I couldn't breathe, I could feel the pain of my maternal tie being broken. I was the one who had to cut off her life support machine and I was there with her as her life line ended in this world. Most importantly, Amberly's life was taken from her. She had so mnay hopes, dreams and goals for herself. All of those are gone now. Our family will never get to enjoy seeing the outome of what she may have accomplished with her life; finishing college, being a career women, owning her own business, meeting her future husband, marrying and having a family. Amberly was stunningly beautiful, mature beyond her years, unique at 18, as she knew where she was going in life, journaled her goals out for the up-coming two years, worked and contributed within my business, meeting her future husband, marrying and having a family. Amberly's death was not an accident and could have ben prevented. An accident occurs when it is not of your control and it can't be pevented. The defendant made conscious decisions by his choices that resulted in serious and real consequences. I stand before the defendant as a compassionate person. I've had four years to think about what consequences should be imposed in an appropriate plea agreement. Your punishment will never begin to equal the LIFE SENTENCE that Amberly's family will live out. There is no penalty that could be enough, when a VALUABLE LIFE is taken. All I've ever expected from the defendant is to take his responsibility and be held accountable for causing my daughter's death. I believe that you can be forgiven if you admitt to and correct your mistakes. God does give second chances in life. It is what you do to prove your life worthy of it. I hope that you will find motivation within yourself to make the necessary changes to turn your life around. As Amberly's VOICE, I will honor and keep her memory alive, by giving her life meaning and purpose in the future. I am committed to speak out, and teach others from our experience and our loss.
