Obituary

Rodney William Wolf, formerly, of West Bend, passed away in his Port Washington home, on September 15th, 2026, at the age of 75.

Born on November 29, 1950, to Joyce Hardegan & Roland Wolf. Rodney was the oldest of seven children and had profound love for family.

On June 10th, 1972, Rodney married Karen Ruth Kube in West Bend, and the couple had three children together. After raising their family in Wisconsin, Rodney and Karen moved to the land of her birth, living many happy years in Hawaii before returning to Wisconsin where he rejoiced in being a grandfather.

He proudly served in the US Marine Corps from 1969 to 1972, as an NCO. Ending his service as a corporal, he earned his Vietnamese Language Certification, National Defense Service Medal, Vietnam Service Medal with Star, Vietnamese Cross of Gallantry, Good Conduct Medal and Rifle Marksman Badge. He loved connecting with fellow ‘jarheads’ in mutual admiration and appreciation of each other’s USMC baseball caps and engaging in good Midwestern breeze shooting.

He deeply enjoyed time with his family, doting on his granddaughters, grilling brats and watching the Packers.

Rodney is survived by his wife Karen; his children: Katie (Concord, CA), Kristen (Port Washington, WI), and Kassandra (Milwaukee, WI); his granddaughters Kendra and Ruth; his sister Cindy (John) and brothers Keith (Nola) and Douglas (Laura) as well as dear siblings-in-law Patty, John (Bev), Steve (Donna), Kathy-Jo (Jeffrey) and Mari (Tom), beloved nieces, nephews, friends, and loved ones.

He is preceded in death by his brothers Michael, Terry, and Charles.

Per Rodney’s wishes, a private Celebration of Life will be held. Please contact the funeral home for reservation details.
