LIBERTY – Jonathan “Jon” Edward Wolf, 43, passed away peacefully from brain cancer on Monday, April 4, 2022. He was surrounded by his family as he took his last breath.

Born on September 24, 1978 in Xenia, Ohio, Jon was the only son of Larry and Joyce Huffenbeger Wolf. He attended Xenia High School and graduated as a three-sport athlete in 1997. He attended Wilmington College for a year on a baseball scholarship.

On April 1, 2001, Jon April took Moffitt on their first date. They were married on December 1, 2002. Over the past 19 years, they have built a life they loved. Their greatest joy was being blessed with the gift of their three children, James Edward, Elizabeth “Lizzy” Ann and Andrew Scott.

Jon worked as a mail carrier for the United States Postal Service for the past 15 years. He was an extremely reliable, hard worker who will be missed by the office workers and regulars on his route.

Jon filled his spare time rooting for his favorite teams, the Ohio State Buckeyes and the Cincinnati Bengals, playing volleyball, table tennis, gardening, reading, singing, traveling, and playing with his kids. He was a loving husband and an excellent father who always made time for his family.

Jon’s other passion was his walk with the Lord. He volunteered for children’s church services, led children’s choir and Sunday school, and enjoyed being a dance/worship leader and group leader for VBS. He loved the Lord and he loved teaching children about Jesus our Savior.

Jon leaves behind his best friend and loving wife April Moffitt; his children, James Edward, Elizabeth Ann and Andrew Scott; his parents, Larry and Joyce Wolf; his only sister, Rhonda (Mathews); his brothers-in-law, Dave Mathews, Christian (Kelsey) Moffitt, and Eric (Erin) Moffitt; his uncles, Mark Wolf, Ken (Shanda) Huffenberger, and Gary Huffenberger; his aunt, Elaine Wolf; all of whom he loved dearly. He was preceded in death by his aunt Ellen, who also died of cancer.

A memorial service to celebrate his life will be held on Saturday, April 16, 2022 at 2 p.m. at the Sovereign Grace Chapel, located at 1933 Canfield Road, Youngstown, Ohio 44511.

Arrangements are entrusted to Wm Nicholas Funeral Home and Cremation Services, 614 Warren Ave., Niles, Ohio 44446.
