Obituary of Marjorie Frances Wolfe
Marjorie Frances Wolfe (Marjie), 65, of Melbourne Florida passed away on August 25, 2023 in Melbourne Florida. Marjie was born in North Miami Beach, Florida to Tom and Sylvia Desmond on August 8, 1958. She graduated from Boyd Anderson High School in 1976. Early in life she worked in the manufacturing industry at Armitron and at Harris Corporation. She spent most of the years thereafter dedicated to her family as a wife, mother, and homemaker. In the past five years she volunteered at the Brevard Zoo. She loved her work there and in 2021 won volunteer of the year honors.
Marjie had many interests and engaged with many groups. She was an accomplished multi-media artist and photographer, a wildlife conservationist, a lover of pets and all animals, an avid reader, and a gardener. She had an encyclopedic knowledge of nature, animals and plants. In recent years she had engaged with the yearly Native Rhythms Festival held in Wickham park, because of her love for the endangered American red wolves.
Marjie is survived by her husband of 40 + years, Don Wolfe of Melbourne, Florida. She is also survived her mother (Sylvia Desmond), her brother (Tom Desmond IV), her daughters (Lisa Lucas, Rachel Wolfe and Donna Wolfe), her grandsons (Garrett and Uriah), and her granddaughter (Angela Freya). She is preceded in death by her father (Thomas Desmond III) and two daughters (Angela Mae Wolfe and Kathleen Frances Wolfe).
A Celebration of Life Service will be held on September 13, 2023 at 1:00 PM. Space at the venue is limited so if you would like a link to the service (both live and a recording) please email Don Wolfe at [email protected]. Burial will follow at a later date (TBD) at Florida Memorial Gardens. Ammen Family Cremation & Funeral Care will be handling the funeral arrangements.
Memorial donations may be made to the Brevard Zoo, the Native Rhythms Festival, the Red Wolf Coalition, WAYS for Life, or Harmony Farms. The family wishes to extend their gratitude to their neighbors, friends, Zoo family, the Native Rhythms Festival, the Red Wolf Coalition, and especially to their Church family.
Marjie is a Christ follower who lived her life with her Heavenly home in mind. She was impactful, caring, loving, and kind and will be greatly missed on earth.

The Red Wolf Coalition and everyone who is engaged in the recovery and restoration of the critically endangered red wolf treasure the memory of Marjie. Not only was she a passionate advocate for all creatures, great and small, Marjie was a friend. Through her social media posts and the programs she hosted, Marjie taught countless numbers of people, young and old, about red wolves and about our responsibility to be good stewards of the earth. We miss her, but we are thankful every day that she was part of our lives and part of the effort to restore a native of the East to the landscape. Her memory is a blessing.

We are so sorry to hear this. Marjie was and always will be one of our favorite humans to talk with. Her passion for conservation of red wolves, and all endangered species, her love of the Brevard Zoo and her family. I am so glad I was able to spend some time with her when she came by for a curbside pickup of some our mangos a month or so ago. You will be sorely missed. We are honored to have known you. Cindy and Don Lang

As a fellow zoo volunteer I remember Marjie always had a smile. She would come to the Africa platform to visit us after her shift. Always happy and positive...I will miss her

Marjie, the impact you made not only on all of us volunteers at the zoo, but also the guests, will live on. My friends who came to visit the zoo always said time with you was what made their visit the most memorable. You will be missed but will always be with us in spirit. XO

Marjie, you never failed to amaze me at all you did and with such good spirit. You'll be missed by so many and I wonder if you ever knew the impact you had in the world.
