William Schulze

My father William Schulze was born 7/30/1945. He was born to German immigrant parents and was an extraordinary son, brother and father. He was a plumber by trade but could build anything with his hands and the trade took his livelihood. He was handicapped for many years but raised two kids on his own after my mother abandoned my family. We were reduced to a different lifestyle but it never effected us because we were together. He suffered from heart issues for 4 years and the medications after a quadruple bypass. He bought property in Wyoming and was trying to fulfill a dream of building off the grid when he came back to Wisconsin and passed suddenly and traumatically. He was the only family I had left and I will never be the same. He was an important element in helping with all his grandchildren. I never had to hire childcare. So far he has saved 2 men's eyesight in Wisconsin. He also was able to donate connective tissue and hopefully has helped burn victims I'm told. I love him deeply still and will forever miss him. I'm writing this on what would have been his 81st birthday.
