Richard C. Wolf

Richard "Rick, Ricky, Wolfman, Papa" C. Wolf, was called home to join the Lord and reunite with the love of his life on December 27, 2020. In his final days he was surrounded by love and family and passed peacefully in the comfort of his home. Rick was preceded in death by his true love, Yvonne Dudkowski, and his parents Chuck Wolf and Betty (Rio) Wolf. He is survived by his daughter Danielle (Mike) Burt, his twin grandchildren Brady & Ella Burt whom were the "light of his life", his brothers Tom (Kathy) Wolf, Chuck (Diane) Wolf, Tony (Cathy) Wolf, his sister-in-law and friend, Sherri Dudkowski, whom provided love, care and companionship to him as his caretaker in his final years. He also leaves behind many nieces, nephews and friends whom he loved so dearly and certainly last, but not least, his beloved blackjack - his little sidekick and companion.

Papa will truly be missed - his laughter was contagious and his endless popsicle stash earned him the nickname "Papa Popsicle". He was a lover of life and took extra pleasure in living life in the "fast lane" (especially on his Harley). He was a giving man and truly cared from his heart - he helped many people find their second chance and embrace sobriety. He also loved to pack an extra suitcase filled with gifts on his frequent trips to his second home Jamaica.

"Goodbyes are not forever, are not the end; it simply means we will miss you until we meet again"
