Thinking of you, Wolf. You were always wonderful to talk to and spend time with in high school. I can only think of good memories and simply wish I could have had more time to say goodbye. You will Never be Forgotten. I'm praying for the ongoing healing of your loved ones.

I am a friend of your son's, though I don't think you've ever met me. Perhaps you have some vague memory of a goofy, long-haired kid with a green minivan.
I think of Wolf often, and with his birthday coming up I am saddened to think of the time that has passed since his death and the great things he would have accomplished in these years. Wolf was a great friend to me in high school and had many qualities that are usually in short supply in this world. Not only did he have a wonderfully creative mind, but his attitude was always one of great optimism.
He was kind, lighthearted, forgiving; he had intelligence without cynicism and expressed his love for people unconditionally. To be with him was refreshing, as his outlook on life seemed to either ignore or transcend many of the petty things that people tend to get bent out of shape about.
I knew him well, though I wish I had known him better. I can't define quite how, but I know that Wolf had a great affect on my life. It brings me solace to know this, but at the same time it seems like the better a man is, the bigger the void is in the hearts of those the left behind.
I miss you Wolf... I always will. You're one of the best friends I ever had.
Your buddy,
Toma

I am lost for words...saddened beyond belief at this news which I am only now seeing. When I was a child in State College, Wolfgang was my everything, my best friend, my brother, my companion..and his family was my family. Mr Music, I have never forgotten you or Mrs. Music or Elfie...I still have those trinkets you gave me before I left (the arrowhead and the eagle pin among other things) and to this day I cherish the memories of those times. It is with great regret that I have procrastinated so much to once again contact you and I, on behalf of my family wish to offer my deepest condolences for your loss. On seeing this I feel as though a part of me has died, and that nothing will ever take its place. May your soul find eternal peace wherever you are my brother and I look forward to the time when we meet again...

Dear Ones,
After the condolances and appropriate and right words are said, please know that, even today, you are still kept in mind.
As this new season dawns with her fresh, cool breeze and waning light, may we know the warmth and brightness of Wolf's spirit - still, in many forms - is with us.

I have many cousins I have not met. It saddens me today to learn that there is now one I will not meet until the afterlife. Susan, you may remember me from long ago when I was a child living next to our grandmother and grandfather Cable. I remember when you all used to come to visit. Though I have not seen you in many years and do not know you all today, my thoughts are with you Susan, James and Eilfie. From reading this guestbook and the obituary for Wolf, I can tell that he was someone I would like to have known. May he rest in peace, and may God give you strength.

To family & friends of Wolfgang-
I'm very sorry to hear the loss of such a wonderful, inspiring person. I attended The Art Institute of Pittsburgh with Wolf and he was the nicest person I've ever met. Wolf had inspired me in so many ways. He stuck me with his warm smile, creative abilities, kind heart, and passion for life. I was amazed at how much he had already accomplished at such a young age. He made me feel good about myself and said you can do anything you want to in this world. Even though I didn't know him long, he was a very good friend of mine, and I will truely miss him. I know that he is no longer suffering and is watching over us all. He was truely an inspiration to me as well as anyone he met. He will live through our hearts in all of the lives he has touched. My prayers and deepest sympathy are with family & friends.
I will miss you Wolf.

Susan and James,
I was so saddened when I came to work and was told that Wolfe was no longer with us; but I was happy that he did make it home which was very important to him and you, his family. I took care of Wolfe often and loved him dearly as did everyone who ever met him. He was a strong, intelligent and very inspiring young man that always did things his way. I know no words can fill the empty space you have in your heart, or bring him back; I only know Wolfe will always live in our hearts because he taught us how important it was to live life to the fullest and love your family,friends and of course our pets. If you ever need anything, just call.

Dr. Mr. and Mrs. Music,
I am very saddened to hear of the loss of Wolf. Although I only met Wolf and Mrs. Music very briefly a couple of times and was, much to my dismay, not able to provide much therapuetic benefit to him, his strength and your family's dedication was very inspiring and provided me with an example to live up to in times of struggle.
My sympathies to you all. God bless you.

James I cannot begin to express my sadness for your loss. You were a remarkable influence on me at a very vulnerable and scary time of my life.
I only knew Wolfgang as a young boy. Life had taken me on a different path and I was not around as he began to grow up. I do know he was incredibly lucky to have you as a father.
Just know that my prayers are with you and your family. I hope that we will see each other soon when you are ready. Be well my friend.

Dear Wolfe's Family,
No words can express the sorrow and loss of losing one so well loved. Take solice in that Wolfe is no longer suffering. Though the sheer loss and pain to those who loved him best continues. Take comfort Susan in that you gave Wolfe your very best. The hearts of the nurses in ICU/PCU go out to you and your family. We loved Wolfe as well. May God help you to learn to tolerate your sorrow one moment at a time. In deepest sympathy.

Mr. and Mrs. Music,
My sincere sympathy goes out to you in the loss of your son, Wolfe. Though I did not know him well he inspired my daughter, Jennifer, to get through some very hard times in her own life and he will continue to give her strength, through his courage and grace. He was a wonderful young man and he touched the lives of so many, even people you don't know. May God be with you in this bitterly difficult time.

Dear Music Family:
My heart and prayers go out to you daily. I too had the opportunity to take care of Wolfie at MNMC. We loved him as one of our own. There were many times that we as staff in the pcu and icu laughed and cried with Wolfie. He was strong and determined and we learned so much from him. I am blessed that God let Wolfie and his mother Susan touch my life to make me a stronger person. Now I pray that God will touch your lives and help you through this difficult time. May God Bless!

Mr. and Mrs. Music:
I met Wolfgang on his last admission to MNMC. He struck me as a strong, determined young man who chose to fight his battle with dignity. He is lost to us now but, thankfully, he in a better place with no pain and fast modems. I think he wants us to remember the laughter and spirit he brought to this world rather than his condtion as he left it.
In this difficult time, please remember the strength and determination Wolfe brought to his task and know he is safe and happy now. May God's peace be with you all and remember that Wolfe's memoy lives in everyone who met him.
And the really good news is I saved....
Peace be with all y'all.

I cant begin to tell you how sorry i am about the loss of wolfgang. He and i shared a lot of memories especially our senior year. He always knew how to make the most dull moments exciting and always had me laughing. He had a good heart and brightened any room. I'll never forget all the things i learned from him. He will forever be a part of me.

James and Susan,
My thoughts and prayers are with you in this difficult time. I was one of the fortunate ones to have the oppurtunity to take care of Wolfe. Wolfe taught so many about life; how to be strong , determined and never to give up.
Wolfe always would give you a smile, no matter how painful he was. The only peacefulness I hope comes out of Wolfe's passing is that everyone who knew him and all who read this will appreciate their own life and cherrish their loved ones. We should focus on enjoying life and not getting caught up in the "material world", and that is just what Wolfe did, he enjoyed his life by being a kind and loving person. Wolfegang Music is what life is all about! Susan and James if you need me I am just a phone call away, Lannette

I send my condolences to you, to Susan, and to Elfie. I'm really so awfully sorry to hear this news, and I care.

James, Susan, and El-
It pains me to have to say good bye to such a wonderful, loveable, and selfless friend. I don't know what I would have done had I not been introduced to Wolf. I am lucky to have gotten to know him before he died and to be able to spend time with him. I loved him like a brother and I'll always remember that warm smile, even when I went to see him in the hospital. Susan, you slept there constantly, and to me, that shows that you are the true definition of a mother. I don't know if my own mother would have done that. If you need anything, I am here. I miss Wolf a great deal and it pains me to have to sit here and write this. I love you all and I wish you the best of luck throughout all of this. Keep in touch. 814 777 2045.

James, Sue, and Elfie, there are no words. What your family has done for me I couldn't possibly describe or repay in ten lifetimes. I love you all, and I am at your disposal in this difficult time. S.Z.

To the family of Wolfgang-
To say that I am completely devastated over the passing of your son is simply an understatement. With that said, I can not imagine the depth of your sorrow. He was the most amazing person I have ever met and I feel so lucky to have had him as a friend and co-worker. So strong and inspirational, my life will never be the same. He continues to live through me as he lives through you...and immortality is the greatest accomplishment anyone can ever achieve. Never will he be forgotten. Anything you need, I am always here. Praying for you all.

He touched our lives so sweetly in the Summer of 2004 as he shared his love, intelligence, and gentleness with our family. We will never forget him and are so grateful to have known him. We wish him peace and we wish you comfort. We send our love your way.

I knew Wolfgang when he was an apple in his parents eye. Throughout the years when I would visit, I saw a little boy grow into a talented, good looking, young man. He always took the time to say hello and this past Thanksgiving, he made an old lady feel good about herself when I asked him to sit by me.
Although Wolfgang's soul has left this Earth, he still remains here with all of us who knew him. Friends always touch our souls and a part of them remains in us. All who knew Wolfgang have something special from him and one day when the day is silent, that special something will awaken in your heart.
Love you James, Susan and Eilfie.
