The reference of death is of another person who died in 2011, please check the news, it is vandalism. Cheers, -- Ytha67 ( talk) 08:05, 17 May 2020 (UTC) (eswiki) reply

@ Ytha67: I think I can see the confusion but believe the article to be correct. There was a LeRoy Wright who died in 2011 but the reference in the article is for a James Leroy Wright Sr.. I was unsure of whether the 2020 death is of the article's subject due to the Charlotte death location but he seems to have had a connection dating to back to at least 2016 through his son's family. Thank you for your suggestion. CalDoesIt ( talk) 08:38, 17 May 2020 (UTC) reply

Please CalDoesIt, then, is the death confirmed? -- Ytha67 ( talk) 08:49, 17 May 2020 (UTC) reply

@ Ytha67: Due to my findings, the 2020 death is correct. CalDoesIt ( talk) 09:06, 17 May 2020 (UTC) reply

Thanks! -- Ytha67 ( talk) 09:13, 17 May 2020 (UTC) reply

@ Ytha67: You are welcome! There is only one primary source about his death so it was worth questioning. Thanks again for checking. All the best. CalDoesIt ( talk) 09:19, 17 May 2020 (UTC) reply
