Allen H. Schultz

August 10, 1943 – August 30, 2022

Allen H. Schultz, 79, of Carmel, and Naples, FL, died suddenly on Tuesday, August 30, 2022.

He was born on August 10, 1943 in the Bronx, NY to Beatrice (nee Ahrens) and Wilfred Schultz.

Mr. Schultz received a B.S. at the College of Ceramics at Alfred University. He completed his M.S. and PhD in Ceramic Science at Penn State University and a fellowship at the Norwegian University Science and Technology. He worked for more than forty years in metallurgical processes and project engineering in the US and internationally.

Mr. Schultz loved crossword puzzles, new library books, and travel. He was smart, curious, opinionated, and stubborn. He had a sly sense of humor and a bark of a laugh. He was a good provider. Mr. Schultz loved baseball, especially Gil Hodges and the Dodgers of his childhood; the New York Giants; and the Nittany Lions. He was, in his own estimation, the handsomest of his brothers. We thank him for everything, and we will miss him.

Survivors include his beloved wife, Jan Guy (nee Giebelhaus); son Erik (Jaimie Morgan); daughter Elizabeth (Brian Ryba); stepdaughter Michelle (Kevin McLaughlin) Mericle; two step-grandchildren Addison and Jackson; brother Peter (Lorie) Schultz; several nieces, nephews, and cousins; his former wife, Helga Norderhus Schultz; many dear friends; and his dogs Bella and Lilly.

He was preceded in death by his parents and brother Daniel Schultz.

In accordance with Mr. Schultz’ wishes, cremation has taken place.  Friends are invited to attend a celebration of life on Sunday, September 11 from 1-5 p.m. at the Bridgewater Club at 3535 East 161st Street, Carmel.

Memorial contributions may be made to local Meals on Wheels, where Allen volunteered wherever he lived.
