Those who learned from him say he believed enthusiasm was a key component to success. Many call him a second father.

"No one lived like Coach Wolf,” said Dan Duddy, of Seaside. “He was alive and he's- you know he's in our veins, so he's really not going anywhere.”

Duddy says Wolf taught him to be giving and that he will be sure to pass that lesson on to his family as well.
