He was preceded in death by his wife, Deloris “Dee” Schultz; parents; parents-in-law, Ewald and Viroqua (Recknor) Kruger; and brother, Lowell Schultz.

Wayne William Schultz was born Jan. 10, 1934, to Lawrence and Rosina (Kopischke) Schultz in Owatonna. He graduated from Owatonna and went on to attend college at Mankato and the University of Minnesota. On April 21, 1956, Wayne was united in marriage to Deloris “Dee” Kruger at St. John’s Lutheran Church in Waseca. Wayne spent two years serving his country in the United States Army and six years with the active Army Reserves. For his careers, Wayne spent more than 15 years with EF Johnson Technologies in Waseca, more than two years as a teacher at Granite Falls Vo-Tech, and more than 26 years at AMPI in New Ulm as a data processing manager until he retired. Wayne was an avid member of the American Legion in New Ulm and a parishioner at Our Savior’s Lutheran Church in New Ulm. Above all, Wayne treasured all the time he was able to spend with Dee, his children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. He will be dearly missed by all who knew him. Blessed be his memory.
