1945-2005 Wolff Jewelers Wolff’s Jewelers & Goldsmiths was opened by Fritz Wolff and his sister Bette Triplett after he returned to Nebraska from a stint as a US Air Force pilot in the mid-1940s. The store used to be called Bette’s Gifts and Jewelry before Fritz and his wife, Wilma, took control of the helm and renamed it.

Frank Wolff bought the company from his father in 1997. He has worked in the store his entire life. While he was a kid, he helped his father with many aspects of the business, including engraving and cleaning. -- from the Blair Enterprise, Nov. 15, 2006
