Colleen Schultz passed away suddenly and unexpectedly on January 12, 2025 in her second home in Gilbert Arizona, at the age of 61 years.
Colleen is survived by her husband of 39 years, David (Dave) and her children Matthew (and Julia) and Bradley as well as her mother Jean Schulte and brother Craig Schulte. Colleen was predeceased by her father Francis Schulte.
Colleen was born in Melfort Saskatchewan but moved to Vegreville Alberta before her first birthday. Colleen grew up in Vegreville where she enjoyed participating in a numbers of hobbies including curling, figure skating and playing piano and the organ. Colleen met her future husband Dave in High School and they started dating when they both were only 16 years old. Colleen and Dave both went to University of Alberta in Edmonton where Colleen graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in Pharmacy and then got married in the summer of 1985. They moved to Edmonton the year after getting married and welcomed their two sons, Matthew in 1989 and then Bradley in 1992. The family moved to Calgary in the summer of 1992. Colleen worked as a Pharmacist for a number of years after graduating before becoming the Pharmacy Manager at the Safeway in her neighborhood in Calgary and then a Regional Pharmacy Manager. Colleen eventually moved on from Safeway and worked for a couple of other companies before she and Dave both retired in 2018. Prior to retiring, Colleen and Dave purchased a second home in 2011 in the Phoenix area (Gilbert) where they spent virtually all of their vacation time prior to their retirements and then close to half of their time after retirement. Colleen loved spending time in the Phoenix area, especially during the winter months, where she could enjoy her active lifestyle in comfort away from the cold winters in Calgary. Colleen was a dedicated runner and participated in a number of 10 km, half and full marathons. Colleen also enjoyed her daily walks with Dave and/or friends.
A Funeral Service will be held at SOUTH CALGARY FUNERAL CENTRE, 12700 Macleod Trail South (at Lake Fraser Gate) Calgary, on Saturday, Feb 15th at 1:30 PM.
