October 15, 2015 at the age of 89. He was born September 24, 1926 to Wilbur and Ethel Eastman Schultz in Santa Cruz, Calif. Ted grew up surfing and was a charter member of the Santa Cruz Surfing Club. He graduated from Santa Cruz High School in 1944 and joined the U.S. Navy, honorably serving as a machine gunner in a PBY amphibious airplane. He married his high school sweetheart, Joan Morton in 1951 in Carson City, Nev. Ted attended California Polytechnic State University in San Luis Obispo, graduating in 1954 with a B.S. degree in architectural engineering. Ted and Joan moved to Carmel, Calif. after college, where Ted was an architect. During their time in Carmel, they had two sons, Martin and Peter. In 1957, when Alaska was still a territory, the family moved to Anchorage. Ted hunted and fished, and became a private pilot. The family went Alpine skiing almost every winter weekend, and Ted was a member of the Alyeska Ski Patrol. He also enjoyed cross country skiing, biking, and backpacking in the beautiful Alaska wilderness. Ted was an architect for the Federal Aviation Administration during most of his career, designing airports and facilities, but also had his own architectural firm for several years. He designed the original Anchorage Museum, was one of the founders of Chugach State Park, and was active in community and civic activities. Ted and Joan moved to Ashland, Ore. upon retirement in 1982, where they had two horses and a large garden. Ted enjoyed sailing his 39-foot sailboat, the “Arltunga," in Puget Sound and Canada. In 1994, Ted and Joan moved to Jacksonville, Ore. and Ted joined the Jacksonville Presbyterian Church and the Boosters Club. He continued his love for the outdoors with hiking and river trips in southern Oregon, and shooting at the gun range in Ashland. Ted was a fine man of high ethics, kind, insightful and genuine, and an avid reader. Ted and Joan loved to travel and went to Europe, Africa, and Asia. They also drove their RV on many trips throughout the United States, Canada, and Mexico. He will be deeply missed by his wife of 64 years, Joan Schultz of Jacksonville; his sons, Martin Schultz (Jennifer) of Anchorage, Alaska and Peter Schultz (Laura) of Ashland, Ore.; and six grandchildren, Sarah, Eric, Grant, Ruby, Roxy, and Cody. Interment will be held at the Jacksonville Cemetery at 1:00 p.m. Friday, November 27, 2015, with a reception and celebration of life to follow at Bigham Knoll in Jacksonville at 2:00 p.m. In lieu of flowers, the family suggests memorial contributions be made to the American Cancer Society.
