Harry Cohen Wolf, MD, Born December 29, 1931, he was the son of Sam and Ruth Wolf of blessed memory. Harry is survived by his wife, Jacqueline Scofield Wolf; son, Dr. David A. Wolf; daughter, Anne Wolf Berggren (Steve); grandchildren, Amanda and Michael Berggren; step children, Dan Scofield and Kathryn Scofield; sister-in-law, Bonnie Wolf; nephew, John Wolf (Ann); great nephew, Isaac; and great niece, Evelyn; and former wife, Dorothy Wolf. His brother, Ed Wolf, preceded him in death.
Dr. Wolf graduated from Indiana University in 1953 with a B.S. in the School of Business. He proudly served as an officer in the U.S. Army from 1953 to 1955. Forty years after his discharge, he joined in a reunion with his fellow officers; and for the next 10 years, he met with his fellow soldiers at various venues around the country. He loved getting together with his fellow officers and telling stories of past escapades in the Army. Harry loved serving in the Army.
He worked for his father at Sam Wolf Auto, until entering medical school. He graduated from IU Medical School in 1966 and set up practice in the "new" Greenbriar area at 86th and Ditch. After several years, he moved his family medicine practice to Naab Road, across from St. Vincent's Hospital.
Dr. Wolf taught in the St. Vincent's Family Medicine Residency Program for many years. He received many honors for his exemplary teaching, including teacher of the year and distinguished physician of the year from St. Vincent's Hospital.
Dr. Wolf also taught "How to Take Patient Histories" for freshman medical students in the IU School of Medicine, Indianapolis. He was fond of telling his students if you listen carefully to your patients, they will tell you what is wrong with them and allow you to make a correct diagnosis.
Dr. Wolf retired from his private medical practice in July 1997, but he continued to teach in the St. Vincent's Family medicine Residency Program for several more years.
He was a member of Congregation Beth-El Zedeck, Beth-El Zedeck Men's Club, Zeta Beta Tau Fraternity at Indiana University, American Legion, American Medical Association, and a life member and diplomate of the American Academy of Family Medicine.
The family would like to express its deepest gratitude to the caregivers and administration of the Memory Care Unit of the Barrington of Carmel. Through their combined efforts, they enhanced the last years of Harry's life.
Funeral service will be held Sunday, December 7th at the Aaron Ruben Nelson Mortuary , 11411 North Michigan Road, at 2 p.m. Visitation will be held from 1 p.m. until the time of the service. Burial will follow in the Congregation Beth-El Zedeck North Cemetery.
