This was one of the best ever if not the absolute best DXpedition CW op. He
could work
the pileups like know one else. The below report is from a DX publication.

Silent Key - Tribute to ZL1AMO, Ron Wright
______________________________________________________________________
It is with great sadness that I report the passing of the legendary
DXpeditioner ZL1AMO, Ron Wright. He was 75. Ron was admitted to
North Shore Hospital last week after he had a collapsed lung and was
in stable condition at the time. He became a Silent Key earlier
today.
Ron was a serious CW op and would visit the US
Novice bands late in his DXpeditions. He had probably well over 100
DXpeditions throughout the Pacific including 3D2RW, 3D2RW/R, 5W1CW,
A35EA, C21/ZL1AMO, FW0BX, H44RW, T28RW, T28RW, T30BH, VR6HI, YJ0RW,
ZK1CQ (South), ZK1CQ, (North), ZK1MB (North), ZK2RW, ZK3RW, ZL7AMO,
ZL8AMO and ZL9AMO just to name a few! Many of these locations he
visited multiple times between the late 70's and 2002
