Robbie

Robert E. "Robbie" Schultz, a cherished son, brother, uncle, and friend, passed away on the 23rd of April, 2024, at the age of 36. Born on January 21st, 1988, in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, Robbie was known for his loving nature, gentle spirit, and selfless demeanor.

Robbie grew up in a close-knit family, the beloved son of Robbie and Alice Schultz. He shared an unbreakable bond with his siblings Ben (and his wife Maureen), Becky, Lucy (and her husband Rey), and Nicole, all of whom he supported and loved deeply. Robbie was also a proud uncle to Rey, Mason, Owen, Ezlee, and Leena, whose lives he enriched with his playful spirit and unwavering affection. His loyal dog, Smokey, was a constant companion and source of joy in his life.

A proud graduate of Greenfield High School in 2006, Robbie was well-regarded by his peers and teachers alike for his kindness and dedication. He carried these traits into his professional life, working diligently in the family roofing business from a young age. His commitment to his work was secondary only to his commitment to his family, and he was respected by all who knew him for his strong work ethic and integrity.

Robbie's passion extended beyond his professional life into his personal interests. He was an avid softball player, a pursuit that not only showcased his athletic abilities but also his team spirit and camaraderie. Robbie also found solace and strength in weightlifting, a discipline that reflected his personal determination and resilience. Yet, it was the simple pleasure of spending time with his dog and his nieces and nephews that truly filled Robbie's heart with happiness.

Those fortunate enough to have known Robbie would attest that he lived by the values of love and selflessness. He approached life with a gentle strength that drew people to him and made them feel cared for in his presence. As Muhammad Ali said “Service to others is the rent you pay for your room here on Earth.” Robbie embodied this sentiment, touching the hearts of many with his genuine affection and care.

Robbie's life was a testament to the impact one person can have on the lives of others. Further survived by many aunts, uncles, cousins, and other relatives, his memory will be cherished and kept alive through the stories and recollections of those who loved him. Robbie's spirit, characterized by his loving nature, will continue to inspire and guide his family and friends.

As we bid farewell to Robert E. "Robbie" Schultz, we celebrate a life lived with purpose and love. His legacy is one of kindness, a gentle touch, and selfless actions that have left an indelible mark on the hearts of all who knew him. Robbie's memory will be treasured forever as a reminder of the profound difference one life can make.
