Ole Wulff, Oldest child of Jacob Wulff and wife Martha Hove was born in Vik I Sogn, Norway, October 15 1867. In 1875 his parents immigrated to America. He was then 8 years of age. The family settled on a homestead in the Town of Dover, Buffalo County. Here he was instructed and confirmed in the Lookout Lutheran Church by Rev. F.A. Moller on the 30th day of July, 1882. At the death of his father, which occurred on the 6th of October, 1896, he tried to take his father's place and help his mother take care of the large family and also of the farm work. On December 26, 1900, he married Miss Sophia Frederickson by the late Rev. F.A. Moller. They continued to live on the adjoining farm he had bought until the fall of 1909 when they moved to Mondovi where he has since resided, until his death which occurred so suddenly on the 27th day of September, 1941.
Ever since coming to Mondovi, both Mr. and Mrs. Wulff have been very much interested in church work, being of the very oldest members of Central Lutheran Church and very regular in church attendance. For over 25 years he was a faithful worker in the Sunday School, always so punctual in attendance, at first as a teacher and later taking care of the records for the Sunday School. here he will be greatly missed, but his example of faithfulness will remain with the children and teachers. He leaves besides his wife, his sisters and brothers: Martha; Ann, Mrs. Lee; Andrew; Lena, Mrs. Carl Johnson; Joseph; Sarah, Mrs. Hans Johnson; Ida Mrs. Olson; Sever and Johanna, and a large number of nieces and nephews, who will greatly miss him, not least by Rev. Thomas I. Lee. a missionary in Kwangshun, China. Blessed by his memory, I know of a morning bright and fair when tidings of joy shall wake us, when songs from on high shall fill the air, and God in his glory take us; When Jesus shall bid us rise from sleep-- How joyous that hour of awaking. Largely attended funeral services were held at the Central Lutheran Church, Wednesday afternoon at 1:30, Rev. E.A. Norson officiating. Burial was in the Lutheran Riverside Cemetery.
