Thomas A. Wolf ’44

Tom died April 30, 2005, in San Antonio, where he lived most of his life. He was 82.

He prepped at Texas Military Institute. At Princeton, he majored in mechanical engineering, was active in the student ASME chapter, and was a member of Tower Club. His roommates included Logan Bostian. After receiving his degree in September 1943, Tom served three years with the Navy, six months on Pacific duty. He added a master's degree in math from Trinity University, then started his own air conditioning and refrigeration business in San Antonio. He also worked as an aerospace propulsion engineer at Kelly Air Force Base.

Tom was proud to be the father of our class baby, Richard Wolf, born Nov. 27, 1944. They both were at our fifth reunion.

Tom's San Antonio memberships included the Order of the Alamo, the Texas Cavaliers, and the Petroleum Club. His first wife, Jean, predeceased him. He is survived by his wife, Muriel Oxford Wolf; sons Richard and Thomas Jr.; a daughter, Lucie Taylor; eight grandchildren; two great-grandchildren; stepsons Terry, Larry, Alan, and Brad Oxford; and a sister, Edith Liebermann. Our sincere condolences go to the entire family.
