New York Times Portraits of Grief
It wasn't exactly a feminist household, but it didn't revolve around the only boy in the family, either. A shy kid at first who suffered through ''the hormonal rages'' of three sisters growing up, John W. Wright Jr. finally put his foot down at 15, when it became chic for girls to wear boxer shorts. ''They are stealing my underwear,'' he complained to his father. ''Don't I have a right to have underwear?''
Nonetheless, or maybe as a result, John grew up to be a staunch family man, remaining devoted to his mother and, despite the demands of being a managing director at Sandler O'Neill, always finding time to help with the care of his three children, frequently taking them to visit relatives to give his wife some time to herself. ''He was a very devoted father,'' his father said. ''I was so proud of him for that.''
And, adolescent chafing aside, his sisters now realize how much they looked up to him. ''They would never let him be the big brother,'' his father said, ''although now, from what they're telling me, he was the big brother all along.''
These profiles were written by Diane Cardwell, Glenn Collins, David W. Dunlap, Leslie Eaton, Robin Finn, Winnie Hu, Andrew Jacobs, Dean E. Murphy and Barbara Stewart.
