About	Alfred Carl Wollen, 81, of Bayville, passed from this life peacefully on Friday, May 23, 2025. Alfred was born on November 27, 1943, in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, to the late Edwin and Dorothy Wollen. He was a loving husband, devoted father, and grandfather. He graduated from the University of Pittsburgh, earning both a bachelor's and a master's degree.
