Robert Bliss Wolfe of Grosse Point Park, MI, died of cancer at Ford Hospital in Detroit, MI.
Bliss was originally in the class of 1917 at Baker University where he was a brother of the Kansas Alpha chapter of Sigma Phi Epsilon (SigEp) Fraternity, but his college career was interrupted by World War I. He spent more than a year in France with the American Expeditionary Forces, and afterward nearly two years with the American Red Cross in Poland, Lithuania, and Russia. Returning to the U.S in OCT 1920, he completed his college work at Baker for his A.B. degree and following graduation was for a year and a half with the Vacuum Oil Company. Then came the trip to Detroit and the Conclave and he became a Detroiter through the circumstance. Thus once more the far-reaching influences of a Fraternity affiliation is demonstrated.
In 1924, Bliss married Irma May Wharton of Detroit.
