We were high school sweethearts and the September after graduating from Columbus High School we were married. It was 1955.
A year later our first child was born, and Paul started classes at MSTC while working full time as electrical apprentice. Paul earned his Electrical Master Journeyman and, in 1965, established Wolf Electric and Construction, Inc. When our fourth child entered college, Nelda also entered college and received her degree in Business Administration and Communications from University of Wisconsin along with her daughter. After graduation, Nelda started teaching Business at MSTC while managing Paul’s Wolf Electric and Construction Inc.
Paul retired in 2007, and Nelda still manages Panel Enterprises Commercial Rentals, which she and Paul co-own. We celebrated 68 years of marriage on Sept, 17, 2023, blessed with each other and our four children, grandchildren and great grandchildren.
Marriage Advice: Enjoy one day at a time and allow each partner to use their specific talents and skills in making decisions together, especially important if you have privilege of working together.
