Lou Wolfe July 31, 1933 – December 17, 2011
Lou Wolfe, a big light in our lives, passed away on December 17th, 2011, as a result of heart surgery-related complications. Her immediate family was at her side. Lou was born on a farm in Ringling, OK. As a child she and her family were part of the "Dust Bowl" generation who migrated to California seeking a means for their family to survive. They picked fruit and cotton, travelling up and down the California valleys living in tent camps and, eventually, through pure guts and determination, established their life. That tenacious spirit always drove Lou. Quit or back off was not part of her lexicon. She was always willing to take that extra step to assure the task at hand was not only completed but done professionally and with class. Her work ethic was amazing.
