Christopher R. Wright passed away peacefully at home, on April 19th 2026. His generosity of spirit, service to his clients, insane work ethic, and great sense of humor endeared him to those who knew him. He resided in Las Vegas, but home to Chris was Paducah, Kentucky, where he was born and lived until he entered the army.
During his stint in the army, Chris served as a military policeman. Being in law enforcement led Chris to his interest in security. With his close friend Mark Witt, Chris was the founder and principal owner of a multi-state security company (Alert Security Asset Protection).
Surviving Chris are his beloved wife, Deborah Vandehey, and their 2 children Ashlynn and John. He is also survived by his mother, MaryAnn Wright.
Chris was preceded in death by his father Charles Ron Wright, and his sister Mary Kay Wright Williams.
