WOOLWICH - Ralph C. Wright, III of Woolwich and Springfield passed away on April 17, 2019, after a long courageous battle with cancer, surrounded by family and friends.

During his life, Ralph worked in construction for many contractors as well as himself. He also milled wood and cut fire wood. He was an avid outdoorsman who enjoyed ATVing, hunting and fishing and boating. He especially enjoyed his second “HOME” in Springfield, Maine. He could always be found out in his “shop” hanging out with the boys after work swapping stories.

A celebration of life will be held at the Taste of Maine in Woolwich on Saturday, May 4^th from 1 to 4 pm.  A private committal will be held at Laurel Grove Cemetery on May 5^th.
