Johnny Wright

August 15, 1944 — January 31, 2022

Johnny Wright, age 77, of Glenwood, passed away on Monday, January 31, 2022.

He was born on August 15, 1944, in Amity, the son of Andy Wright and Opal Jane Howell Wright. He was preceded in death by Norma Wright, and two brothers, Orville Wright and Kenneth Wright.

Johnny had several jobs throughout his life but may be best remembered as a barber and owner of OK Barber Shop in downtown Glenwood. He was never one to sit still; he liked to stay busy. You could find him making a garden or taking care of his chickens. He enjoyed visiting and was known to have a good sense of humor.

He is survived by his son and daughter-in-law, Gary and Deborah Wright; his daughter and son-in-law, Krystal and Joey Pannell, all of Glenwood; four grandchildren, Ashley Wright, Justin Pannell, Jackson Pannell and Kassidy Pannell; his sister and brother-in-law, Mary and Marshall Blain of Sherwood; and his brother and sister-in-law, Larry and Sheila Wright of Glenwood.
