Kenneth Wolfe Obituary

Kenneth B. Wolfe, 83, of rural Montague, MI, passed away April 29, 2025. He was born in Dec of 1941 to Charles and Virginia Wolfe. He married Carol Conner on June 9, 1973. Carol passed away on Feb 9, 2021. They had no children. He is survived by his sister, Penny (Marlin) Fourman, nephew Brian (Sasha) Fourman, grandnephew (Oliver Fourman), niece Kim Proctor, and nephew Jeffrey Proctor.

Ken graduated from Montague High School in 1960 and with a Bachelor's degree in Geography from Michigan State University. He then entered Officers Candidate School with the Marines. He achieved the rank of Captain while in the Marines and served his country during the Vietnam war.

Upon leaving that job, he started working for a variety of companies managing franchise relations (Famous Amos Chocolate Chip Cookies, Taco Bell, Club Nautico, & Libbey Owens Ford Glass.) He lived all over the US and moved back to Montague around 2001.

Ken travelled extensively for his jobs seeing much of the world and visiting 6 continents.
