SCHROEDER
Lynn "Bud" Schroeder passed away 11 January at age 82, of congestive heart failure. He was a socially active resident of San Antonio, Texas since the 1950's, and a member of the Petroleum Club.
Bud's formative years were spent on his parent's farm in Treynor, Iowa. After graduating in 1945 he joinded the Air force during Korea. After discharge he moved to Texas, and worked weekends in the oil fields drilling for black gold. His weekdays were spent at Kelly Field. Eager to retire at the age of 55, and up to that time, he jokingly kept a calendar that marked off months, days, hours, and minutes.
His lifelong passions included oil and gas interests, deep sea fishing, world travel, wine making, gardening and friends. He remained a bachelor despite some serious romantic relations. Throughout his life he was committed to family, and his two nieces and nephew regarded him as surrogate dad.
Bud was predeceased by two sisters, Theil Nielsen of Council Bluffs and Jeannine Shellman of San Antionio, and his beloved 'project', niece Patti Shellman of San Antonio.
He is survived by nephew Michael Shellman of San Marcos, Texas, niece Janet Shellman Sherman of Ithaca, NY, grandniece Alison Shellman, and grandnephew Alexander Reeve.
He will be remembered as an affable, opinionated, humorous, sometimes cantankerous straight shooter - We love you, Uncle Bud, and rejoice in the life you shared with us.
Graveside service is at Ridgewood Cemetery, in Council Bluffs, IA where Bud will be with family in perpetuity.
A Celebration of Bud's life will be held at the Petroleum Club.
