Frederick Schuman Obituary

Born in Akron, Ohio

Frederick was the cherished son of Viola Huntsman Schuman and Paul Dalco Schuman. He was the middle son of three boys. Brothers, Ronald and Dalco. He married Nancy Lee Gamingasco on September 30, 1968, and together they shared 57 wonderful years. Nancy was always his girl.

He was devoted to his four beloved daughters: Margo (Lecia), Nicole, Pilar (Marc), and Tiffini (Jason) who meant everything to him. Fred's love extended deeply to his grandchildren: Dominique (Andrew) and Kip, as well as his "bonus" grandchildren: Madie, Nikki, Jake, Carson, and Raven. He also treasured his great-granddaughters, Evelyn and Charlotte.

Fred served as a soldier in the U.S. Army Reserves. A passionate traveler, he made friends wherever he went. As President of the Salt Lake Motorcycle Club, he enjoyed all things with engines-motorcycles, cars, and anything related to the auto industry. He was a die-hard Utes Football fan who held season tickets since 2007. He also cheered enthusiastically for the Denver Broncos, even witnessing one of their Super Bowl wins.

Fred loved classic Western films. His favorite cowboy was John Wayne. He was a master landscaper, creating beautiful homes and gardens for his family and friends to enjoy. Known for his sense of humor, he always offered a compliment and delighted in being a proud "girl dad." He was overjoyed when a grandson finally arrived to carry on the Schuman name.

Sensitive, thoughtful, kind, friendly, hardworking, and devoted to his family, Fred was truly one of a kind. His absence will be felt deeply by all who knew and loved him.
