    How we reported touching ’Last Kiss’ story

The

    resulting story and photos were incredibly touching. We spoke with Regan and Gordon about reporting the story and with Community Editor Lee Howard, who connected The Day staff with the Wolfe family. After recording the interviews for the podcasts, we received the update that

    Harold Wolfe died at 6:30 p.m., Monday, January 17 with his wife Sherry by his side.
