Vale Allen Wright

[haiqu]

Tonight I received an email from Switzerland informing me that my old friend Allen Wright has passed on. Since anyone who was around Scientology in ANZO in the 70's will know him, this message is meant to inform his many friends.

Allen originally hailed from New Zealand. He was an Olympic level cyclist, a world class audio designer and a dedicated Scientologist. He was on the Mission Into Time voyage with LRH and acted as ship's photographer, amongst other duties. Some of the well known photographs of LRH used by the church even today were taken by him.

Allen ran his own business, Allen Wright Electronics in Sydney where he modified and repaired hi-fi and instrument amplifiers, and manufactured his own range of equipment under the Audiolab brand. At night on SydF staff he also ran the Communications Course.

In 1982 he formed a new company VacuumState Electronics specializing exclusively in valve amplifiers. This business has produced audio products regarded within esoteric high-end audio circles as amongst the best available, and he has consistently won awards and accolades from his peers in this rarified realm.

Sensing that he could no longer agree with church management in the early 1980s, Allen trained with Bill Robertson to C/S level for Ron's Org, and delivered services up to the OT levels and Excalibur to various people within Australia before reestablishing his electronics business in Germany in the mid 1990s. At one stage he also manufactured his own meters for this purpose.

Allen also had an interest in Gold exploration and used his abilities to successfully research potential goldfields as a consultant. In the past few years he moved the audio business once more to Schaffhausen, Switzerland and expanded to 3 additional staff.

I regarded Allen as a friend and mentor, and as someone to whom I could communicate anything. His passing will leave a gap that cannot be filled.

Allen is survived by two daughters, and I have contacted his ex-wife Erin via Facebook to inform her of the news.

Go well, my friend.

May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face;
the rains fall soft upon your fields and until we meet again,
may God hold you in the palm of His hand.

Thanks for passing this info on, Haiqu.

Allen is a great, very decent Being. Your write-up did him justice.

Good tribute. My condolences on this loss. Glad he concentrated on his talent and made much success, as that is the best defense against the corrupt scientology.

Was Allen the father of Erin Wright's daughter Virginia Stewart?
"Erin is still in the fold - her daughter Virginia is in OSA ANZO, and Erin is right behind her."

Erin Stewart is Allen's ex-wife. They had two daughters, Virginia is one of them. He was always eager to hear news of how they were going in life.

Edit: I guess this also means I just outed myself to OSA by mailing Erin. Oh well. Anyone with half a brain could figure it out anyhow.

I am sorry for your loss Haiqu. May he rest in peace.

For what it's worth, I think that resting might be the last thing on his mind. He intended to join LRH at Target Two.

Hope he is doing exactly what he wants and getting one hell of a kick out of it.
