Sunday, October 2nd, Earl Eugene Schultz, Jr. passed away. Gene had 
suffered an apparent unrecognized stroke about two weeks earlier, and a 
week later fell down a long escalator at the Minneapolis municipal 
airport. He was given immediate emergency aid, then hospitalized, but 
never regained consciousness. Many of his family members were with him 
during his final days.

What follows is a more formal obituary, based on material provided by 
his family and others. That is followed by some personal reflections.


Personal Details

Gene was born September 10, 1946, in Chicago to E. Eugene Sr. and 
Elizabeth Schultz. They moved to California in 1948, and Gene’s sister, 
Nancy, was born in 1955. The family lived in Lafayette, California. Gene 
graduated from UCLA, and earned his MS and PhD (in Cognitive Science, 
1977) at Purdue University in Indiana.

While at Purdue University, Gene met and married Cathy Brown. They were 
married for 36 years, and raised three daughters: Sarah, Rachel and 
Leah.

Gene was an active member of Cornerstone Fellowship, and belonged to a 
men’s Bible study. His many interests included family, going to his 
mountain home in Twain Harte, model trains, music, travelling, the 
outdoors, history, reading and sports.

Gene Schultz, Sr.; sister, Nancy Baker; daughters and their spouses,
