Mrs. Wolf is survived in death by her three children, 10 grandchildren, two great grand children, one daughter-in-law, wife of the deceased son, Mrs. Nella Wolf of Promise City, Iowa, who came and assisted in caring for her during her last illness, other relatives, and a community of friends that dearly loved her for her real worth as a home loving Christian neighbor. Her home was always open for all neighbors and friends. She made no difference who they were, they were all her friends and she loved them and made them welcome in her home. She united with the Christian church at Butler, Mo., when thirteen years of age. Coming to the present home many years ago, she placed her church membership in the Union church congregation. She was of those unassuming home loving christian women a devoted mother and wife, a real home maker. To know her was to love her. She will be greatly missed by loved ones and friends. Funeral services were held Saturday, January 25th, at the union church in charge of J. D. Noland, a former pastor. The body was laid to rest in the Union church cemetery by the side of her husband.
