1925 - 2009
Our beloved husband, father, grandfather and great-grandfather, Dr. John Clarence Wolfe, passed away on Oct. 18, 2009, to the sadness of his family and many friends.
John was born in Independence, Mo., on March 23, 1925 to Clarence and Alice Wolfe. John enjoyed his early school years...
Read MoreLarry Wolfe and I have been classmates and friends for 50 years. During our school years, I was a guest in the Wolfe home many times. In all my visits, I never remember Dr. Wolfe ever raising his voice in the house. He was a kind, gentle, thoughtful man who I always held in high regard. My deepest sympathies to the entire Wolfe family.

Gary and the Wolfe family. I was saddened to hear of the passing of your father.I remember your dad from our childhood and have fond memories of a kind and caring man. It is evident by the success of all the children of his family that he was a true success as a father.
My mother worked with the school district many, many years after her children were long gone from school and always spoke very fondly of your dad.
Prayers go out to you in this sad time of your lives.

Dr. Wolfe was a friend and colleague of my dad. Together, they led the Ventura Unified School District for over 20 years. My dad had the utmost respect for Dr. Wolfe and considered him to be a kind, generous and trustworthy man. I went to high school with Larry and know that he and his siblings reflect all the wonderful qualities of their father (and mother!!) I understand how heartbreaking it is to lose someone you love so much. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you.

Paulina and family -- I will always remember John as a gentle, kind man. Pancake breakfasts were always so very much enjoyed with you and "camping" in San Felipe was so relaxing and enjoyable. He is surely in heaven gently touching his angels. Much love and many hugs, Pat Kofal
