Ann R. Wolfe, 77, passed away peacefully on August 19, 2024, surrounded by her loved ones. Ann was born September 3,1946 to Kenneth and Elizabeth McCauley in Clintonville, Wisconsin and spent her childhood in Bay City, Michigan, before eventually residing in Westland and Howell, Michigan. She married Thomas Wolfe on April 2, 1971. In her retirement years, she found joy and community in The Villages, Florida.

Ann was the beloved mother of Tracie Wolfe and Scott Wolfe (Stephanie), Grandmother to Eric, Jeremy, and Annalise Wolfe. She is survived by her sisters, Elizabeth Vendley and Maureen Ersek, many sisters-in-law, brothers-in-law, nieces and nephews, great-nieces, and great-nephews. Ann was preceded in death by husband, Thomas Wolfe in 2009, sisters Kathleen McCauley and Mary Hurley, brother Michael McCauley and parents Elizabeth and Kenneth McCauley.

Ann devoted her career to the Head Start program, where she excelled in technical administration, focusing on database and technology management. Her work was instrumental in supporting the program and the county, helping to ensure that families in need received the assistance they required.

Ann was loved by everyone she met, and she loved everyone she met. She loved to laugh and brought joy to those around her. Ann was a true “diamond girl,” dedicating herself as a lifelong #1 fan of Neil Diamond. She was also a proud “Parrothead,” embracing the Margaritaville lifestyle as a devoted Jimmy Buffett fan. Her love for music knew no bounds; she adored singing along to her favorite songs or playing the air harmonica with enthusiasm.

Ann’s spirit will be cherished and remembered by all who knew her, as she leaves behind a legacy of love, laughter, and unforgettable memories.
