Wright hopes that he will still be Hickory’s mayor when
that “more” finally comes to fruition, and his eye is res-
olutely on the prize, with, perhaps, a little glance left
over for the citizens of town who, once again, have co-
operated to make the future possible. “A side benefit
is going to be that all of the people who are here, and
have been here, and will be here for life, will have a
nicer place to live. But that’s not the objective,” he as-
serts. “The objective is to create an environment that
will lure young people and the companies that employ
them.” “Life. Well Crafted.” Or should we say: “Nulla
Vestigial Retro - No Steps Backwards.” Either way, for
the citizens of Hickory, North Carolina, it’s always been
about moving forward - and doing so together.
