Clayton William Schultz Jr. was born on Dec. 25, 1936, in Belvidere, Ill., the son of Clayton Sr. and Gladys M. (nee Stroud) Schultz. He was raised in Illinois and Wisconsin, graduating in 1955 from Mauston High School in Mauston. After high school, Clayton served in the Wisconsin National Guard and worked at a foundry in Belvidere, Ill. He then enlisted in the U.S. Army. During a 1-week furlough before reporting to duty, he was changing a flat tire on his car and was struck by a passing car. His injuries left him disabled for the rest of his life. He had many interests, but especially loved listening to music, and watching Judge Judy on TV.

Clayton is survived by five siblings: Lois Chilson of Marshfield, Wilma (Earl) Tennant of Huntsville, Texas, Duane (Barbara) Schultz of Berlin, Sandi Coyle of Wisconsin Rapids, and Diane (Duane) Schultze of Greenwood; one sister-in-law: Doris Schultz of Waupaca; and several nieces, nephews, other relatives and friends.

He was preceded in death by his parents; his sister, Violet Sheneman; and two brothers: Gordon and Larry Schultz.
