Thank you for reading Wright Enterprises Community Spotlight!

MAY THE BLESSINGS OF THANKSGIVING CONTINUE TO FLOW TO YOU & YOURS ALWAYS AS THE HOLIDAYS ARE UNDERWAY....

As we are reminded of the grand declaration of "Peace on Earth and Goodwill Toward Men..."the Sadness of the Shooting of Mario Woods in San Francisco, the Sadness of San Bernardino and other tragedies of misguided wills, will not be forgotten as we hold our friends and families closer this Holiday Season.  The Holidays are more than a Hobbit under the Tree or the latest Star Wars Action Figure or all the Tokens of the Treasure Troves of That Which Money Can Buy.  May you and yours experience an abundance of THAT WHICH MONEY CANNOT BUY from God's divine hand.

THANKFUL FOR THE LIFE OF LHT'S MARC PAQUETTE 
& SOULFUL CHRISTMAS 12/10-12/24


In Happier Moments, Marc Paquette celebrates New Year's Eve and LHT's "Rejoice" Holiday Musical. Photo captures the brilliant work of People's Eye Photographer Malaika H. Kambon.
SAN FRANCISCO-It is with deep sorrow that we note the passing of Marc Paquette, a long time member of the Lorraine Hansberry Theatre, who worked for years with the founders, Quentin Easter and Stanley Williams, who died within months of each other in 2010.  The popular Holiday Season productions of Langston's Hughes' Black Nativity and other holiday musicals have been a mainstay for the Lorraine Hansberry Theater.  "Marc" with his handlebar mustache was a strong advocate for the Lorraine Hansberry Theater and he was virtually a one-man show putting together current Artistic Director Steven Anthony Jones' vision of "Soulful Christmas" last year. Marc's mark will surely be on this year's run as the Lorraine Hansberry Theatre will remember him.  Pay tribute to Marc and the on-going work of the Lorraine Hansberry Theatre   by making a year-end tax-deductible donation .
