    I'm a firm believer in stories with arcs and beginnings and endings and all that.

    We have some items in the museum that were donated directly by Wolf's family, ... Even though he moved to Chicago, he still returned to Clay County to hunt and fish. We have Wolf's personal hunting rifle on display, as well as unpublished photographs and even Wolf's passport from when he toured Europe and the UK. Basically, we have the museum structured to tell Wolf's story -- from his beginnings in White Station until his death in 1976. It's a tribute to his life.
