Amy Jo Schultz

She was born on Sept. 13, 1993, in Iron Mountain, the daughter of Peter and Lisa (Robinson) Schultz.

Amy graduated from Norway High School in 2011.

Amy was passionate about many things and poured her heart and soul into those things. Whether it was saving turtles and birds or adopting cats, dogs or whatever animal needed a home. Her love of all animals was prevalent throughout her life.

Amy was a talented pet groomer, the “Pink Haired Groomer” who made every one of her fur baby clients the star of the show. Personal identity and individuality were some other of Amy’s passions.

Amy encouraged people to be the person that makes them feel good and brings them the most inner joy. Their authentic self. Accepting and compassionate, always standing by a friend.

Amy was a high energy and enthusiastic young woman who carried that with her through good and bad days. Strong, smart and beautiful Amy will live on in so many hearts and smiles.

She is survived by her parents, Peter and Lisa Schultz; brothers, Adam (Lesa Lichlyter) Schultz and Jason (Cassidy Menard) Schultz; her close friend, Ian Cavalieri; paternal grandmother, Rosalind Schultz; aunts Debra Hood, Rae Jean Schultz, Vicki Jo (Kerry) Darling, Kathy Zahn, Lynda (Terry) Johnson and Linda Robinson; uncles, David (Anna) Robinson, James (Martha) Robinson and Paul (Tracy) Schultz; many cousins and friends; and her much loved dog Kovu.

Amy was preceded in death by her maternal grandparents, Helen and Richard “Dick” Robinson; paternal grandfather, Leonard Schultz; uncles, John Zahn and Rick “Stuby” Robinson and her cousin, Greg Maynard.

Family will greet friends on Friday, June 27 from 10 to 11 a.m. at St. Barbara Catholic Church in Vulcan.

A Memorial Mass will be celebrated on Friday at 11 a.m. at the church, with Fr. Marty Flynn officiating.
