Paul Donald Schulz

Paul Donald Schulz, born September 21, 1930, passed peacefully from this earth May 30, 2015, to be with his Heavenly Father and rejoin his beloved wife of 56 years, Joanne. He was surrounded by loved ones during his last days on earth. He is survived by his five children Paula (Dennis) McKinney, Austin, Texas; Michael (Franney) Schulz, Mobile, Alabama; Jennifer (Sean) O'Brien, Pensacola, Florida; Marit Karen (Dietmar) Glaser, Fairhope, Alabama; and Joseph Schulz, Jupiter, Florida; his sister, Nancy Roche of Lady Lake, Florida; 13 grandchildren; five great-grandchildren; and several nephews and nieces. Paul was born in Cleveland, Ohio, and thus began his love of all Cleveland teams especially the Cleveland Browns. He spent the majority of his childhood growing up in Miami with his sister and mother, Ellamae Schulz, who preceded him in death, and graduated from Sts. Peter and Paul Catholic High School. After graduating from the University of Florida in Gainesville with a degree in Chemical Engineering, he enlisted in the Navy and was stationed at Naval Air Station Pensacola where he later became a candidate in Officers Candidate School until he broke his back and was medically honorably discharged in 1955. He was hired by International Paper Company and worked for them until his retirement in 1986. They moved to Boca Raton where he was a consultant until he fully retired in the late 1990's. After 27 wonderful years in Boca, Paul and Joanne moved to Fairhope, Alabama in 2013 to live with their daughter and be closer to family in the area. Viewing and mass will be held on Saturday, June 6, 2015 at St. Jude Catholic Church, 21689 Toledo Road, Boca Raton, FL beginning at 9:30 a.m. Following the mass, he will be entombed alongside Joanne at Our Lady Queen of Peace in Royal Palm Beach.
