Obituary Date: 1922-08-11

Information: We are sorry to note the death of our neighbor and friend, Abraham Wolfe, of Given.  Mr. Wolfe was born and lived his 68 years in this community. His neighbors and acquaintances knew him and respected him for his honesty and integrity.  He possessed that which makes a man respected and honored; a proper sense of right.  He was united in marriage to Mary Jane Kessel, deceased.  To this union were born five children, two sons and three daughters.  Again united in marriage, to Anna Elizabeth Rowley, and to this union were born eight children, six sons and two daughters. All his children survive him except one, Boyd, who died September 18, 1917.  He leaves behind a wife, one brother, N. S. Wolfe, one sister, Mrs. Levi Moore, and twelve children, besides a number of grandchildren and a host of friends to mourn their loss. The funeral was preached at the home in the presence of a large crowd after which the body was laid to rest to await the resurrection of the just.  While his spirit has gone to the realms of the bliss, his body awaits its redemption at the second coming of Christ.
