In loving memory of

KATHLEEN RUTH WOLFE

Age 97 years

Ruth passed away after a brief illness on March 4, 2025 at Deaconess Medical Center in Spokane, Washington.

She was the youngest of seven children born to Margaret (Edith) and Wade Wolfe. She was born in Huntsville, Washington and moved to Spokane in March of 1956 where she resided for the remainder of her life.

Ruth was a very lively and vivacious person. She was a bookkeeper by profession and loved numbers and records. She enjoyed reading her National Geographic and Smithsonian magazines. She also loved animals of all types, but especially her two Yorkshire terriers, Sir Thomas and Stormy. Any donations in her memory should be made to local humane societies or wild life associations.

She was preceded in death by her husband Ralph Axelson and six siblings, Donald C. Wolfe, Winifred Wolfe, Margaret Berry, Wade H. Wolfe, Betty Myers and Richard Wolfe. She is survived by nephews Donald L. Wolfe, Wade Wolfe, Paul Wolfe and Keith Myers, by niece Melissa Wolfe, by cousin Jerry Phipps and by grand nephews Christopher Wolfe, Joshua Wolfe and Aron Wolfe Martin and by grand niece Leigh Ann Wolfe.

A family celebration of life for Ruth will be held at a future date.
