Mable Arlene Wolf was born October 13, 1939 in LaSalle Village, Watonwan County, Minnesota, the daughter of Ernest H. and Emily Mathilda (Schultz) Wolf.  She grew up and lived in multiple places, including New Ulm, Fairmont (where she attended St. Paul Lutheran School), Madelia, and Wilmar before moving to Albert Lea in 1972.  Over the years she worked at Jennie-O, Farmer’s Produce, and Land O’Lakes/Hudson Foods.  Mable was a member of Grace Lutheran Church, Crest Services, Cedar House, and ARC.  Thanksgiving dinner was her favorite: turkey, mashed potatoes, gravy, and pumpkin pie.  She loved to eat; the sweeter, the better.  She enjoyed spending time with friends, playing Bingo and Skip-bo, and watching old tv shows.  Mable loved to celebrate her birthday, opening presents at Christmas, and handing out pencils to the neighborhood trick-and-treaters.  She liked to attend church each Sunday when able.

Mable is survived by many friends, and friends who became family.

Mable was preceded in death by her parents, Ernest and Emily.

Thank you to all her friends - her Crest friends who became her family and inspired her when she didn’t think she could be.  She loved us all.
