Her husband of 64 years, Stanley Woolf, died in 2012.
Mrs. Woolf was born on Sept. 4, 1922, in Bronx, N.Y. She graduated from the Bronx's Walton High School in 1940. Shortly thereafter, she moved with her family to Brookline, where she began her clerical career working for the USO. She relocated many times throughout her life, living in Waban, Brighton, Framingham, Marlboro and finally settling in Clinton in 1991, where she spent the remainder of her years. She worked for Entwistle Company, in Hudson, and Incoterm, in Natick, as an engineering assistant. Later, she worked in retail and sold Avon. At an early age, she developed a love for the arts, especially music, and had a passion for playing the piano, which she did up until a few weeks before her death. She enjoyed traveling, shopping, going out to eat and going to the movies. She was a Boy Scout and Campfire Girls leader and volunteered at the Bigelow Free Public Library for many years.
She is survived by three children, Howard Woolf and his wife, Arleen, of Winchester, John Woolf of Cambridge and Alison Matthew and her husband, Kerry, of Clinton; three grandchildren, Bret Matthew of Cambridge, Laura Matthew of Worcester and Nicholas Woolf of Somerville.
She is pre-deceased by two sisters, Paula Freedman (her identical twin) and Lila Fields.

Burial will be at Sharon Memorial Park, 40 Dedham St., Sharon.
