Funeral Held for Soldier With South Dakota Ties

By KSFY Staff

Funeral services were held Tuesday for a soldier with South Dakota ties who was killed in Afghanistan.

The Defense Department says 24-year-old Army Sgt. Eduviges "Duvi" Guadalupe Wolf of Hawthorne, Calif., died Oct. 25 when a rocket-propelled grenade hit her vehicle.

She leaves behind two children and a husband from the Alexandria
area who also has been stationed in Afghanistan.

Her funeral was scheduled Tuesday in Alexandria, with burial in Farmer. The Rev. Tom Clement says Wolf's husband's family is from
Farmer.

A statement from Gov. Mike Rounds says Wolf was a member of Alpha Company of the 704th Brigade Support Battalion, Fourth Brigade Combat Team, Fourth Infantry Division from Fort Carson, Colo.

Her death brings to 30 the number of service members with South
Dakota connections who have died in the wars in Iraq and
Afghanistan since 2003.
