Shasta Nacol Wright was born August 4, 1980, in Wichita Falls, Texas. Shasta is the daughter of Jerry Smith and the late Lisa Olson (Mercer). Shasta grew up in Wichita Falls, Texas and graduated high school from Rider High School.  On September 28, 2007, Shasta was united in marriage with Jonathan Wright. Shasta and Jonathan spent most of their marriage living in Burkburnett, Texas with their 3 sons, and many dogs.

Shasta was a homemaker and enjoyed spending time with her family. Shasta was an amazing mother always making her boys a priority. She enjoyed spending time in her pool with friends and family. Shasta was an avid dog lover, always having room for "just one more".

Shasta's family remembers her as witty, outgoing, and strong willed. Shasta was full of life and fought her battle with cancer to the very end. Shasta's strong-willed personality kept her family and friends on their toes, her journey with cancer was none the less. She was described by her nurses as "one of their favorites", followed by "she gave us a run for our money".

On Sunday January 16, 2022, Shasta gained her heavenly angel wings while in the care of her nurses at Hospice of Wichita Falls. Shasta will be missed dearly by her loved ones, but her spirit and love remains with us.

She is proceeded in death by her mother Lisa Olson, Grandparents Roy and Betty Mercer.
