Juneau County Board Meeting Agenda for November 4th

Schultz, Jennifer “Jenny” Lynn Age 50 of Adams

Jennifer “Jenny” Lynn Schultz, age 50, of Adams, passed away peacefully on October 28, 2025.

Jenny was born on May 14, 1975, in Friendship, WI, to Richard and Sharon (nee Cook) Gulas. She graduated from Adams-Friendship High School in 1993, where she excelled at basketball and volleyball. She was captain of the volleyball team her senior year and was on both the homecoming and prom courts. In 1994, she married her high school sweetheart, Jeff Schultz. Although it ended in divorce, the marriage created a beautiful daughter, Mikayla.

Jenny was a creative and artistic soul who had a special gift for working with flowers. Many memorable occasions in Adams County were made even more special by the beauty of the floral arrangements she created and the joy they inspired. Countless husbands were able to ensure happy homes when Jenny happily fulfilled last-minute orders for birthdays, anniversaries and Valentine’s Days.

Jenny was a lifetime member of St. Paul’s Lutheran Church, where she was baptized and confirmed. Faith and family were important to her and she enjoyed spending time with family and close friends – especially holidays, Packer parties and friendly, but fiercely competitive, card games. She was also an excellent cook and baker and enjoyed sharing her culinary creations with others.

“Faithful are the wounds of a friend” (Proverbs 27:6). With an honesty rooted in love, Jenny was not afraid to be honest – even if it sometimes hurt. Yet greater still were her kindness, compassion and willingness to help others – especially those going through tough times that she herself sometimes endured.

Jenny was preceded in death by her parents, Richard Gulas and Sharon Mattox, stepfather William Mattox, a dear friend, Aaron Myott, and a beloved canine companion, Riley. She is survived by her daughter, Mikayla (Cole) Trzesniak, sisters Lisa (Ron) Allen and Carol (Dan) Wood and brother David (Bobbi) Gulas; nieces Danielle (Mark) Baughman and Victoria (Kainen Dyer) Collins; nephews Christopher (Allexys Meyers) Collins and Chase Gulas; great-nieces Harper Baughman and Willow Collins; and great-nephew Ezra Sasser. She is further survived by many aunts, uncles and cousins as well as a dear network of wonderful and caring friends.

Family and friends are invited to attend a visitation at St. Paul’s Lutheran Church in Friendship on November 9 at 2:00 pm, with refreshments being served. The memorial service will be held at 3:00 pm. A private, family graveside service will be held following the memorial service.

In lieu of flowers, memorials may be directed to Mikayla Trzesniak, 1897 Lakeview Drive, Friendship, WI 53934.
