It is with deep sorrow and much love that the family of Wolf (Wolfie) Affias, age 78, mourns his passing on Thursday, March 5th, 2026.
Wolfie is survived by his daughter Sara (Bill), his wife Jill, brother Mike, nephews and nieces. Also, special family John, Angel, Chris, and Lexi House.
He is preceded in death by his parents Charles and Ann, infant son Charlie Joe, and brothers Peter, Pat, and Louie.
Wolfie immigrated to the United States when he was about 3 years old with his parents, Peter and baby Mike. He remembers playing with a toy motorcycle during the long journey, and that his mom was very seasick. The family settled in North Minneapolis, Minnesota. Wolfie attended public and Hebrew schools. He graduated from St. Louis Park High School in 1965.
After high school, Wolfie explored the United States on his motorcycle, attended the U of M, and worked at a variety of jobs. He retired from the Robbinsdale School District after 20 years of service.
Wolfie loved riding his Harley with his “Hog” friends, working on cars, puttering in the shed, fixing whatever Jill broke, and our road trip vacations. Most of all, he loved his farm. He always said that it has “good energy”.
Because of that energy, we are planning a Celebration of Life at the Affias Farm this summer. More details to follow.
Rest in peace Wolfie. You are very loved and will be missed. Until we meet again.
