  1. Elaine and John,
    I was so sorry to learn of your Dad/Grandpa’s passing. I will always remember him as a soft, gentle spoken man with a great sense of humor. He was quite the tease and always seemed to have a smile on his face and a twinkle in his eyes….always made you wonder what he was thinking. I know you all have a lot of memories of him to share, share them with love.

    Know you are in my special thoughts…..

  2. I will miss grandpa wolfe a lot, but at least he is in a better place, a place with grandma wolfe, his son,and his parents, he was a great man, when he lived with me he would always make me laugh, and let me tell you he was a flirt i remember how one time i went with him to his bank and the lady at the window was talking then after he got what he needed i heard him say “thank ya pretty lady” and man did i laugh, and since he died its been really hard for me he was my best friend, i cant wait to see him again.
    I love and miss you grandpa
