Bret Waine Wolf, 65, passed away Sept. 23, 2024, in Warsaw. He was born on Feb. 19, 1959, in Goshen, to Marion M. and Barbara Sue Wolf. On June 30, 1979, he married his sweet Sue Ellen Sprong Wolf.
Bret was a graduate of West Noble High School (1977) and the Acme Institute of Technology (1980). During his education and continuing throughout his life, he pursued careers in broadcasting and sales. Many may remember him from his time with WRSW radio station of Warsaw.
It was love at first sight for Bret and Sue when they met at the Mermaid Festival in North Webster in 1977. Their 1979 wedding was one for the story books. In 1982, God granted them their miracle twin babies for which they enjoyed taking part in every activity together as their daughters grew.
Bret enjoyed his time as an active member of the community. As a member of the Warsaw Breakfast Optimist Club, he served in many roles including president and treasured the friendships he formed. Bret also enjoyed many hobbies including flying. As a private pilot, he enjoyed sitting around the table at the airport. Sharing a cup of coffee and stories with his pilot friends brought him as much joy as flying itself. Bret’s family and friends will remember his love of music and the time he spent playing at the family farm. He was a hard worker and was always interested in learning new things.
Bret was extremely creative and had a great sense of humor. He loved to play in the kitchen, and many may remember his homemade pizzas. His daughters were extra fond of his homemade taffy and had fun with their dad participating in the process and enjoying the results. Bret loved to spend time with family and friends including his Claypool United Methodist Church family. As much as he loved to make new memories, he loved to recall old ones and cherished all that were shared.
He is survived by twin daughters, Lori (Matt) Deeds, of Warsaw; and Lisa Wolf, of Cincinnati, Ohio; siblings: Eric (Barbara E.) Wolf, Scot (Kim) Wolf, twin sister Brenda (Don) Patrick and Brad Wolf; his two grandsons; and many nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his wife of 40 years, Sue; as well as his parents, Marion Wolf and Barbara Sue Wolf-Hoover. Bret was remembered during a private burial at Oakwood Cemetery in honor of his life.
Titus Funeral Home of Warsaw is entrusted with the care of Bret. Family and friends are welcome to visit the cemetery where he was laid to rest with Sue to honor his memory and grieve in their timing. May we all find comfort in our cherished memories.
