My husband, Allan Erickson, worked for DPS and had the pleasure of knowing Chief Wolff for many years. He always spoke very highly of him, and Allan believed Chief Wolff was a great leader for Oro Valley P.D. My sincere condolences to the beloved family members. I'm very sorry for your loss. Allan thought Werner was a great man.
