Family helping family. DJ Wright and his staff of professionals at the DJ Wright & Ford Family Funeral Home wrapped our Layman family in a loving, caring cocoon as we journeyed through the death of our husband and father, John. DJ shared his knowledge with true empathy in each and every step of this painful yet joyous process. He listened to each and every memory our family shared and created a beautiful day for John. Although you may have never met John, you truly knew this wonderful man after his Celebration of Life. DJ took the time to make multiple visits to check in on me and made sure that my daughters had the sweet opportunity to say goodbye to their father as one of the greatest Pittsburgh Steeler fans. Thank you for honoring John with such joy and love. Kathy Layman

I cannot express enough gratitude for the compassionate care provided by Wright & Ford Family Funeral Home during one of the most difficult times in our lives. When my beloved 6-year-old nephew died tragically, their support was a beacon of kindness, generosity and professionalism. The funeral director, DJ, went above and beyond to ensure that every detail was handled with sensitivity and respect. From the initial consultation to the memorial service weeks later, his dedication was evident. DJ took the time to visit my nephew’s parents at their home to discuss their needs and kept us informed at every stage of the process. DJ’s thoughtful approach helped ease the burden during this heartbreaking time, and his genuine care was deeply appreciated by our entire family. We are grateful for the support of DJ and his staff and would highly recommend their services to anyone in need of such delicate and thoughtful assistance. Thank you, Wright & Ford Family Funeral Home, for your exceptional care and for helping us honor our precious nephew’s memory with dignity.
