Butterfly Wright, beloved mother and devoted grandmother, passed away on December 28, 2023. Born on October 9, 1942, in Brunswick, Georgia, to Mary Lois Broussard and Robert Wright, she leaves behind a legacy of love, resilience, and cherished memories.


Butterfly was a dedicated mother to her three children, Marie, Katherine, and Jack. Her adoration extended to her grandchildren, Rosa Maria Ann Kuhn, Stevie Marie Ramos, Vanessa-Storm Josephine Ramos, Jessica Rhiannon Ramos-Curtis, in addition to Kyle and William whom she cherished dearly. She was blessed with two great grandchildren, Adreanna Wesley, Camden, Kacey and Jeremy.


Coming from a family of siblings including the late Ann and Mike, Dennis, Robert, Jude, Susan, Chris, and John, Butterfly cultivated strong bonds and enduring connections with each of them.


Her life was one defined by service and education. She proudly served in the US Air Force and pursued her passion for social work, earning a bachelor's degree from San Diego State University. Butterfly's commitment to bettering the lives of others was evident in her career and everyday interactions.


Having lived in San Diego for over six decades, Butterfly touched the lives of many before relocating to Salem, Oregon, where she spent over 20 fulfilling years, enveloped in the beauty of nature that she so adored.


Butterfly found solace and joy in the simple pleasures of life. Her love for nature was boundless, finding peace in the company of coyotes, the melody of birds, and the beauty of blooming flowers. She had a knack for capturing moments through her sewing and family photographs, preserving memories for generations to come. Tea was her comfort, and puzzles were her playful challenge—both bringing moments of tranquility and joy.


Her departure leaves a void in the hearts of all who knew her, but her spirit will forever flutter in the wind, a testament to a life lived with grace, compassion, and an unwavering love for family. May her gentle soul rest in eternal peace, forever remembered and cherished.
