Sheriff Wolfe,
On today, the 40th anniversary of your death I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice-not just as a Law Enforcement Officer but for our Country as well when you served with the U.S. Army in Europe as a member of 30th “Old Hickory” Infantry Division fighting the Germans during World War II. And to your Family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.

The murderer of Sheriff Harry Wolfe (Stanley Penn) has died in prison. My prayers be with the fellow officers and family of Sheriff Wolfe. I hope that this gives them some closure.

I am 56 years old and can remember Sheriff Wolfe coming to my parents house when I was a kid. It was a neighborhood meeting about shady things going on around the area. I always thought it was nice that he took the time to do that for my parents. He was old school and a true professional. Not so much politics. Great job Sheriff.

My Father, Bill Howard, was his foxhole buddy in the 30th Division during WW II. I have several photos, letters etc in Dads war book collection. In fact I believe Sheriff Wolfe visited Dad in Honaker, Virginia and vice versa. I recently was showing my son his Grandfather WW II collection and found the newspaper articles Mrs. Wolfe sent to Dad when this happen. I remember Dad speaking fondly of Sheriff Wolfe and several war stories of them together. I barely remember him visiting but according to my father he was a great friend and soldier. May he rest in Peace!

Your heroism and service is honored today, the 30th anniversary of your death. Your memory lives and you continue to inspire. Thank you for your service. My cherished son Larry Lasater was a fellow police officer murdered in the line of duty on April 24, 2005 while serving as a Pittsburg, CA police officer.
Time never dimishes respect and you will always be honored and revered. I Pray for solace for all those who love and miss you for I know both the pain and pride are forever.
Rest In Peace

PLEASE RESPOND IF YOU KNOW THE WOLFE FAMILY
My name is Sara and Harry was my grandfather. His daughter Kim is my mother. I have never met anyone from my mothers side of the family and would love to be able to contact someone and learn about my mothers past. Harry sounded like an incredible man and I would love to hear more about him from his family, and I guess my family. Please email me if you know of any way to contact the Wolfe family. Thank you so much.

My aunt and uncle, Billy and Lou Wanda Ferrell remembered Sheriff Wolfe as a good man who would personally respond to calls made to the Sheriff department. His brand of common sense law enforcement and dedication to his community is still missed by the residents of Union County. I was only a child when he was murdered, but grew up hearing their stories of how one good man can make a difference in his community.

Although I rarely see the Wolfe family these days, I remember that moment well. The Wolfe family sat directly in the pew behind my family's every Sunday. And I remember the empty space where Harry used to sit that remained vacant for many Sundays after.
I still think about his family often.

I'm sorry to hear about what happened to you. I'm more saddened to know the guy who did this to you is eligible to get out.I pray he doesn't. Justice will not have been served if he gets out. Rest in peace. We will all handle it for you down here.It's the least we could do for such a great man.
