On June 21, 1969, she married Michael "Mike" Schultz (aka Mr. Right) at the Star City Church of Christ in Star City, IN.
Cindy worked as an Instructional Assistant at Eastern Pulaski Elementary School for 35 years. Over the years, she touched the lives of countless students. Cindy was proud to have earned an Associate's Degree in Early Childhood Development later in life. In addition to her career at the school, Cindy was a Certified Naturalist at Tippecanoe River State Park for six years.
Cindy was a member of Bethel Bible Church in Winamac. She taught Sunday School and VBS for several years, was an active member of the church quilting ministry, and enjoyed the fellowship of life group gatherings.
