Todd N. Rolfe had served as captain of the Gallupville Volunteer Fire Department. 

SCHOHARIE COUNTY — Todd N. Rolfe, of Murphy Road in the town of Wright, died Thursday, July 15, 2021, at Albany Medical Center after a long decline in health. He was 65.

He was born on June 7, 1956 in Cooperstown, New York, a son of Fritz and Irene (née Settle) Rolfe.

He graduated from Schoharie High School and later began a long career at various companies doing mechanical repairs to large trucks and machinery. He worked for Freihofer’s Bakery, Jack Miller’s Tractor and Truck, and the Schoharie County Highway Department before retiring.

A charter member of the Gas Up, he was a 36-year member of the Gallupville Volunteer Fire Department where he had served as captain.

“Todd enjoyed ‘tinkering’ with anything that had a motor and was old,” his family wrote in a tribute. “He also was an avid hunter and respected the outdoors and mother nature.”
