A self-employed electrical contractor, he was a 1983 graduate of North Hunterdon Regional High School. Mr. Schultz was active in a voluntary capacity with the Quakertown Fire Co., Quakertown, NJ and was a member of the Hunterdon County Electrical Contractors Association.

Terry was a wonderful father, husband and friend. In his spare time Terry enjoyed cooking for community events and coaching NHHS wrestling club. Terry was a spontaneous fun loving entertainer, often having friends and family at his home for casual dinners and bonfires. Everyone who knew Terry fell in love with his kind heart, gentle spirit, and humor.

Through the years Terry became involved in the Franklin Township School Board and volunteered countless hours doing electrical work to keep the project under cost and on time. Terry also ran many of the school events making them what they are today. During the four years as a member of the Quakertown Fire Company, Terry volunteered many hours barbequing and cooking at events to raise funds that benefitted the community. A recent shining moment was winning the Clinton Chili Cook-Off this past May. Cooking and nurturing people were a part of his life.
