It was during this time he meet a fireman from Sharpsburg Herman " Buddy" Wolf a hard working volunteer willing to always help out with all the tasks others did not want to do and seemed to be an all around good guy .
So you can imagine how Grizzly and every other firefighter in the valley where shocked when Buddy as he was known was arrested and admitted to starting a horrific fire on November 2 1981 which would kill 3 young boys as they slept in there beds. Some could not believe he could do something so evil and thought he was forced into the confession but in the end he was convicted and sent to prison for life. How many previous fires did buddy set is unknown and so
The end of the story or so you would think.

But the story does not end there a series of fires all over the Sharpsburg and surrounding area started breaking out in 1994 and low and behold a Volunteer firefighter from Sharpsburg is accused and convicted and sentenced to 6 years probation Kenneth Wolf .
Yes buddy wolfs son .
Why he was ever allowed to join the dept is beyond me maybe they felt bad he grew up with out a father and if he had a clean record it would be wrong to deny him but you think they would have kept a much closer eye on him .Many including myself wished he would have spent the rest of his life in prison with his father but he only got probation.
