With Heavy Hearts We Say Goodbye
Posted by Beckie Sullivan on Jan 30th 2018
With heavy hearts we announce that Hans Wolf passed away on Saturday, January 27th.
Hans and Kathy built a company based on family and this is evident in how their children have joined the business and continue to emphasize these values.
As we all know, Hans and Kathy had no plans to retire! Their children, Tina, Jonny and Karin, as well as Jonny’s wife DeAndra and Tina’s husband Andy, have all become key parts of the business and this has allowed Hans and Kathy to travel extensively in recent years.
Hans loved working and he could often be found stopping by the office on Saturdays and Sundays. I think it always secretly bothered him that we took weekends off!
We all feel the loss of this amazing man. Hans knew, and asked about, issues we all dealt with whether work related or not.
Throughout the years Hans has helped so many of us grow by giving us advice, opportunities and sometimes a tough word or two. As we all know, Hans spoke from the heart and off the cuff. You knew what was on his mind.
Hans loved sales and he liked nothing better than making a successful outside call to a customer. He was an entrepreneur and salesman that also had a heart of gold.
Hans and Kathy built a strong team that will continue to thrive and grow – and that is one of the best gifts we could give Hans. Every time we hit a new sales goal going forward I know I will forever hear Hans saying ‘okay, great, what’s next?’.
In lieu of flowers the family has set up the Hans Wolf Scholarship Fund through McHenry County College. To donat, please click here and reference ‘Hans Wolf’ in the “Designation” section.
God bless you Hans, rest in peace.
All of us at Marshall Wolf Automation
