We Remember
SCHULZ, Alfred “Alf”
—
September 11, 1949 – June 9, 2021
Alfred Schulz slipped away from us peacefully on the morning of June, 9, 2021.
Born in Kukulau East Germany. As a young boy, his family immigrated to Calgary, Alberta where he went to school and started his career in sales at the age of sixteen. In 1983 he moved to Kelowna and remained until his passing.
He fundraised for charities such as the Variety Club, as well as for people in need in the Rutland Community, through annual golf tournaments for 25 years.
He is remembered as a man who enjoyed spending time with family and friends. He also enjoyed fishing when he was able to get away to do so.
Alf was a fun-loving, loyal, loving, thoughtful, and compassionate man. He was also hard-working, steadfast, and devoted.
He is survived by his loving wife Wendy Schulz of 38 years; his children Gary (Joan) and Mike (Szabina); grandchildren Morgan, Garan, and Michael; his sibling Willi (Sharon) Schulz; relatives Jim (Jean) Bodie, Bob (Elaine) Bodie, and Jerry (Brenda) Bodie; and his numerous nieces and nephews.
Alf was predeceased by his parents; his brother Helmut Schulz; sister-in-law Barb Miller; and his brother-in-law Bob Van Sprang.
There will be a private family service.

So Sorry To Hear The News
You Are In Our Thoughts & Prayers
Well, we are very sorry to hear about the passing of a very important part of our family. Alf had a way of keeping me in stitches all the time when we went to visit. Hey Alf remember the time we got a free meal at that Chinese restaurant because you pretended to be the member of the health board Such a deal. Many more stories I could tell but I’ll let u rest now. Goodnight and rest in peace. We love you !!! Rest well my friend..
Bob and Elaine.
I am very sorry for your loss and wish your family strength during this difficult time.

Wendy, so sorry for your loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with you .
Alf was one of our regular customers, the last couple of years, at my Petro can. We looked forward to seeing him,he was always so lovely and kind, and we always enjoyed seeing him. We noticed when he stopped coming, hoping he was okay, but worried nonetheless. We were so sad when we heard of his passing, but so grateful we had the pleasure of knowing this wonderful man. Our deepest condolences to his family and friends.
