I do not know how many of you are aware of Paul Wolf's passing on February 2. Paul Wolf was the father of Mike Wolf of MTH Trains. It was Paul Wolf's support of his son that allowed Mike to start MTH. Without him our hobby would be very different. Thank you Paul Wolf, rest in peace.

I knew about this since it happened. I hesitated to post this since I know that Mike is private about his family. I don't fault him in this. Over the years I have heard wild and silly rumors about his family from dealers and others that should have known better. For the record, Mike has a family and is happily married.
I felt that we should take a moment and appreciate what Paul Wolf has done for all of us. We should also keep Mike and the rest of his family in our prayers.

I know that the Wolf family's pain at losing the father will diminish with time, just as for all of us such hurt must take its place among a lifetime of joyful and painful memories. Yet we are richer by life's experiences. May all those mourning Paul Wolf's passing find a great wealth of golden memories.
I'm so sorry for Mike's Dad's passing, it will be hard for Mike to get over as I'm sure they were very close. My condolences go out to the entire Wolf family, I hope their pain and suffering is short lived but their fond memories will never be forgotten. God Bless Mike and his father.
Scott, thanks for posting this, I hadn't heard anything about it and didn't know that Mike's dad was behind Mike and the driving force for him to get started.
Rest In Peace Paul Wolf and thank you for all you did for Mike to get him started. We are all much richer now for your help.
