Peter P. Wolf was born August 8, 1928, to Lawrence and Elizabeth (Gabriel) Wolf in Hillsview, SD.  He was raised on the family farm until he and his family moved to Aberdeen.  Following graduation from Aberdeen Central High School, Peter moved to Minneapolis, MN, where he attended Dunwoody Institute.  It was while attending school there that he met his future wife, Delores Kriech.  

Peter was united in marriage to Delores on June 12, 1950, in Waubay, SD.  The couple made Aberdeen their home, where Peter was employed in the hotel business for many years before eventually retiring from Presentation College as Maintenance Director.  The couple then moved to the Minneapolis, MN area.  Peter and Delores shared 41 years of marriage and raised five children together before she passed away on March 22, 1992.  Peter continued to reside in Minnesota until the time of his death.

Peter was a member and also served as President of The Custodial Engineer Association.  He enjoyed spending time outdoors hunting and fishing, reading old Western novels and working puzzles. Peter also enjoyed collecting coins and Avon decanters.
