L. Marie Schulz

L. Marie Schulz, 90, of Bensalem, PA, went home to be with her Lord and Savior, Sunday, January 25, 2026. Born in Cherry Tree, PA, she was the daughter of the late Otis and Laura (Ebbs) McIlwain. Marie was the loving and faithful wife of Ronald A. Schulz, who preceded her in death in 2020.

A devout Christian, Marie was a past member of Grace Independent Baptist Church, Penndel, PA and Bensalem Baptist Church, Bensalem, PA until her health no longer allowed her to attend. Marie was a dedicated homemaker, she cared deeply for her children and grandchildren. When it came to baking, nobody could surpass Marie’s baking skills. For 5 years in a row, she took first place for her apple pies at the Kutztown Apple Festival. Marie emphatically declared that the secret to her success as a baker was Robin Hood Flour; she would drive hours from home to buy it.
