The daughter of Thomas Levi and Nellie Augusta (White) Wolf, daughter born in Marshall Oklahoma - "Catherine Wolf", tells me a story of Edwin (I am the granddaughter of Catherine Wolf). She spoke of Edwin as he was a kind and gentle man. He would come home to Marshall Oklahoma singing the tune she remembers so well called "I Still Smell Those Navy Beens A'Cookin", and she said she sung it all the time with him when he would come home to visit. She remembers one day playing outside, and she noticed a figure of a man walking up the road, it was her Uncle Edwin and he was whistling his tune. . . it was a happy day for her. He was in a Nazi Death camp and they gathered up all the prisioners and sprayed them with gas. . . . Edwin and one other guy is the only two who made it out alive. Edwin is the son of Thomas M.
