Edward Albert Wolff, Jr., age 90, of Dallas, Texas, passed away peacefully on Dec. 1, 2020.
Ed was born on Nov. 10, 1930 to Edward A. Wolff, Sr. and Winnie Humphreys Wolff in Dallas. After graduating from Woodrow Wilson High School, he went on to study accounting at Southern Methodist University, acquiring his CPA license shortly thereafter.
After graduation, he joined the US Air Force, achieving the rank of 1st Lieutenant. He was a CPA for over 60 years in Dallas and truly loved what he did. He was a partner with Dohm & Wolff, Pannell Kerr Forster, Travis Wolff, and Armanino. In 1960 he married Joyce Grissaffi, going on to have two children, Susan Marie and Edward Albert, III.
Ed was a force of nature, determined to provide for his family and give them the life he felt they deserved. His family meant more to him than anything else in the world, something he often mentioned. He was especially proud of his grandchildren and boasted of them as often as he could. Ed was passionate about hunting and fishing and could often be found outdoors with his good friends or relieving them of their money at the poker table. He also enjoyed travelling with his family and friends.
Anyone who knew Ed knows that he was the most loving father and husband a family could ask for. He was funny, quick-witted, devout in his Catholic faith, and he will be greatly missed.
He was preceded in death by his parents and older brother Fred Wolff. He is survived by his wife of 60 years Joyce Grissaffi Wolff, daughter Susan Marie Wolf (David Wolf), son Edward A. Wolff, III, grandchildren Christopher, Jason, and Nicole Wolf, and numerous nephews and nieces.
There will be a Celebration of Life Mass Wednesday, Dec. 9 at 2:00pm at St. Monica Catholic Church, 9933 Midway Road, Dallas, Texas 75220. The service can be streamed and watched live: www.youtube.com/c/stmonicacatholicchurch.
The family requests that in lieu of flowers, donations be made in his name to Catholic Charities of Dallas. A special thanks to the nurses and aides of CC Young for their wonderful loving care.
