Abstract
The Biblical Creation Society has 'lost' a good friend and vice-president in the passing of Professor Verna Wright. After two years of suffering with cancer, Verna Wright passed into the Lord's presence on 31st January 1998, aged 69 years. Verna was Professor of Rheumatology at the University of Leeds where he headed the Rheumatology and Rehabilitation Unit and was held in high regard. His main work was in the understanding of the nature of human joints. When he retired, he left behind a team of thirty researchers. He had over a thousand publications to his name.
