The Genesee Country Village and Museum is now the third-largest living history museum in the country, visited each year by thousands from around the world. There, visitors participate in life as it was lived in the early years of the Genesee Country, seeing how it changed from a pioneer wilderness to the agricultural dynamo that energized the development of Western New York.

The change led to a life's career in early American architecture with an emphasis on the history of the Genesee Country.

A "proud Marine," Mr. Bolger left campus to enlist during WW II, serving in the South Pacific (Okinawa).

Wolfe) of Historic Pittsford; and a member of Psi Upsilon Fraternity; The Fortnightly Club; RIT Institute of Fellows; Rochester Historical Society; and a 30-year member of The Monday Night Probability Seminar." In addition to his love for family and a host of friends, Mr. Bolger was a skilled dry-stone wall builder.

Bolger is survived by his wife, Nancy Wharton Bolger, their four children, twins Robin Blair Morse (Stafford-Ames Morse II), Duvall, WA; Stacy Bruce Bolger (Patricia Roelse), Pittsford; Elizabeth Bolger (Samuel Munoz), Chicago; Lindsey Bolger (Alec Brecher), Waterbury Center, and four grandchildren, Stacy Bolger, Pittsford; Stafford-Ames Morse, III; Duvall, WA; Olivia Hudson, Chicago; and Stefan Brecher, Waterbury Center, VT.
