I was born in Oil City, Pennsylvania on May 23rd, 1945 to Tracy and Kathleen Wolfe. I lived in
Oil City until I was age 9 when we moved to Erie, PA. Then in 1959, when I was 14, we moved to Gary, IN. In 1971,
I moved to Chesterton, IN where I still reside. I have had the blessing of 4 children (three boys and one girl) and five grandsons
and one great grandson. Two of my sons have unfortunately preceeded me in death. I have tried to remain positive and
to embrace the blessings that I still have and I try to do everything with passion and to live in the present moment, not
regretting the past or fearing the future. I also have tried to learn a lesson in my mistakes and appreciate the sunny day
more because of the storm. People who know me will probably say I am spontaneous and have a good sense of humor.
I love animals, and volunteer at the animal shelter in my spare time. I am caring and feel and display my emotions. I
also would say that I am in to fitness and health. I believe your physical body is your temple and the only true possession
that you have in life besides your own thoughts. I believe that you rust out quicker than you wear out. I love
nature and the outdoors. I especially love being near, in and on the water. A good sunrise or sunset is something
that I appreciate and try to catch as often as I can. I also love a good movie and these are some of my Favorites. Hiking, biking, running, rollerblading, skiing
and sailing are some of my favorite outdoor activities. I love photography and dabble in creative writing. I
also like to collect quotes and sayings. My favorite role thus far in life has been being a grandfather to my five Grandsons
and now one Great Grandson. At age 75, I feel very fortunate to still have my health and the family and friends in my life
that I do. I have been a very fortunate man to take the journey of my life. |
