Dennis and I have fond memories of Pastor Schultz while he was at First Lutheran Church in Waltham. Our daughter was part of his confirmation class. Our prayers go out to Kristina and Kurt that we got to know through Sunday School. Rest in peace Pastor.

One of the greatest preachers of the Gospel who ever lived. And he's still preaching to us by example, leading the way for us to embrace the promise of eternal life. All my love to his wonderful family.
