Evalene J (Harland) Wolf of Galveston went to be with the LORD on December 6, 2025, after living 6 yrs in assisted living at Kokomo Place.  She was born July 23, 1934, in Frankfort, IN to Earl Vernon and Anna Belle (Hamilton) Harland. She had 3 sisters and 1 brother who had all preceded her in death.  She married Charles R. Wolf on June 6, 1952.  They were married 54 years until he passed in 2006.

Evalene and Charles had 4 children who are all surviving.  Steve (Michon) Wolf, Carol (Dan) Nagy, Charlene (Stu) Newcomer, and Lynn (Larry) Fear.  She had 6 grandchildren, 2 step-grandchildren, 9 great-grandchildren and one step-great-grandchild.

Evalene was an active member of Galveston United Methodist church for over sixty years where she was a member of the choir as well as a director of the choir for 27 years, UMW, and church secretary.  She played the piano and organ as well as other instruments, all self- taught.

As a teenager, her family lived in California for several years, where she played the viola in the band while attending Los Angeles High School.  They returned to Frankfort for her senior year where she graduated.  She continued to travel the world extensively with her siblings.  In her late fifties, Evalene retired from Delco.   She pursued drafting course work to promote her career.  She enjoyed spending time with her friends, reading, sewing, genealogy, and theatre.  She was a loving mother, wife and grandmother and caregiver for three of her siblings, husband and other family members.

Evalene has chosen cremation and will be interred at Greenlawn Cemetery with her husband and siblings. There will be a local celebration of life for Evalene in the Spring.
