Reverend Wright Still in Critical Condition After Car Crash

2008_07_wrightt.jpgA beloved Brooklyn pastor and gospel singer remains in critical condition after a July 4 car accident. The Reverend Timothy Wright's wife and 14-year-old grandson were killed when a driver driving the wrong way on I-80 in Pennsylvania hit their car (the other driver also died). Wright's family has not told him of his wife's death, hoping to tell him when he's stronger. Wright's son said, "He's fighting for his life. He's getting stronger spiritually, mentally and physically. Time will tell."
