It took me hours and hours of going through photos to find any of just YOU, Dad, cause

YOU were always the one taking the pictures!

DAD -- You are for sure the best Dad, Grand-dad, Great Grand-dad,

Husband, Father-in-law, and Friend that anyone could ever have.

We Love You!

We honor you first of all for your life as a minister of the gospel preaching

the Word of God without compromise.

You’ve never required a fancy church to preach in – the open air

will do just fine.

We honor you for going and making disciples of all nations, baptizing

them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit

For marrying and giving in marriage

For giving much needed encouragement to many …

throughout the years

For helping countless ministers and their congregations

For honoring fellow ministers, including those who have gone on

before

For your labor of love through building and building

and BUILDING …

Your children were right there as some of your best laborers!

You taught us well!

One of many memories your children have was all of those

campers you built over the years!

You’ve always known how to have fun, to make life interesting and to

keep the sport of hunting.

You’ve always known how to make a little bit go a long ways.

You are a man of faith and vision who’s always known how to make

the best of every situation with God in the equation.

During Mom’s declining health and even after her departure to heaven, you’ve remained committed to your

family!

Leaving your own mother, father, and family members behind to obey

God’s calling on your life was not easy!

Raising your children in a foreign country was often a challenge!

Yet you saw to it that we received the best of everything, including a

full education.

Thanks for being obedient to the call of God and for making life so much

fun for our family. Thanks for everything!!

Thanks Dad for always being there, even as the one taking all the

photographs!

Dad, even if I am your youngest, I think you‘re the Greatest!

It is my honor to say, “I come from good Wolf stock.”

I gladly share with others that, “My father has been a minister for many years and I appreciate the many things he has taught me.”

Dad, Anyone can be a father

but you have touched my life as my dad by choice and for this I’m grateful.

I know I don’t come to visit you as often as I’d like to but I love you no

matter what.

I’m proud to be your daughter and to have you

as my dad.

- Joyce

For today, tomorrow, and everyday you will always be my dad!

To us you are the perfect father,

a Godly example that has been extended to us by

God’s grace!

That’s why we call you Daddy!

We are proud of you!We love and honor you

today!

Judy, Jeanne, Daniel, Philip and Joyce
