Floyd Wolfe Obituary
Floyd "Wolfie" E. Wolfe, 72, of Peru, IN, passed away on September 19, 2023, at Blair Ridge Health in Peru.
He was born on May 4, 1951, in Detroit, MI, to the late Floyd P. Wolfe and Catherine (Smith) Wolfe. After completing his education, Floyd worked for many years as a boilermaker for Bryan Steam. He also was a proud member of his community, and enjoyed his many years working at the Denver Tavern, local VFW, as well as Ebert Machine Company. He never knew a stranger and enjoyed being a member of many local associations and clubs around Peru. Floyd was known as a positive man who never had a bad thing to say about anyone, and who had many joys in life. He was an avid sports fan, who enjoyed watching some of his favorite teams every year, like the New York Yankees or Green Bay Packers, and he also loved movies. However, his greatest joy in life was the time he spent with others, and his positive outlook as well as long-lasting friendship will be missed by many.
Floyd is survived by his sons, Christopher "Critter" Wolfe, Michael (Shanna) Wolfe, and David (Christal) Wolfe; sisters, Cherie Wolfe and Tammy Gardner; his grandchildren, Cooper, Jadelin, Addalyne, Mallorie, Benson, Madison, and great-grandson, Maverick.
He was preceded in death by his parents.
