Please Feel Free To Leave A Comment Or A Memory You Had With Woody~

My brother, Woody Schultz, went missing in a surfing accident on August 28th, 1980. No body was ever found and it was the first time in the recorded history of Newport Beach that a body had not been recovered.
Woody, we miss you terribly and hear your laughter everyday, even after all of these years. And, 'It's a wonderful night for a moon dance...'

I graduated NHHS in 1973. I knew Woody through mutual friends. He had a razor sharp sense of humor, and was a kind and caring person. Every time I had a conversation with him, or overheard him talking to others, I was usually cracking up. I think about him often, and I imagine he is carving it up on a round egg board somewhere, in the sky, or somewhere in the world.

Woody "Always" made me feel special... He would always have a kind word or funny "Tease" for this volleyball girl from CDM. Save a "Moon Dance" for me Big Guy! Miss You!

Just goes to show you, people are not forgotten, I thought of Woody Schultz today, he wasn't a friend of mine but we went to NHHS together. I have thought of him over the years and will continue to.

Started surfing with Woody and Gerard Wooters in junior high at the river jetty. Had a lot of fun trips to Mexico surfing and Palm Desert drinking.

Wow! Cito! It’s been such a long time! How did you end up with that board? Where are you living these days? So many questions.....

It’s the morning of January 18, 2025, and for some unknown reason, thoughts about Woody Schultz popped into my head. So, I googled his name and discovered this site. Amazing how the brain works.
I remember how funny Woody was, and visits to his house in the Coves (?) were always full of laughter and craziness. Great times in the 70’s for sure! Lots of waves and good times…I miss you Woody, and hope you’re ripping it up wherever you are bro. Peace.🤙
