Lynne Schultz

February 23, 1968 — April 17, 2017

Lynne Schultz will be remembered for her infectious smile and outgoing personality. She lived a full life in her short 49 years on this Earth. Her love for the Lord and her drive to help children in need really defined who Lynne was as a person. She lived in Middleton and was a counseling intern and patient advocate for Madison Mental Health Services. Lynne even helped draft a law signed by Gov. Walker designed to protect children.

She was born February 23, 1968 in Wausau to Charles and Lois (Gut) Schultz of Wausau. Lynne was a 1986 graduate of Wausau West High School. She went on to receive her Bachelor of Arts Degree in Journalism and English from UW Oshkosh and was currently working on her Master's Degree in Social Work from George Williams College in Lake Geneva. She began her career in media marketing working for the Wausau Daily Herald, Oshkosh Nortwestern, WTMJ television in Milwaukee and several radio stations in Bethlehem PA. She also worked for Krause Publications in Iola specializing in organizing sport shows throughout the nation. Lynne met scientists from around the world when she was employed in the Human Resource Dept. and later as a global recruiter at Covance Pharmaceutical Research in Madison.

At the age of 49, Lynne passed away on Monday, April 17, 2017 at Aspirus Wausau Hospital.

Survivors include her parents, Charles and Lois, two brothers, Matt (Gretchen) of Tell City, IN, Mike (Jen) of Plover and niece and nephews, Cassie, Nate, Ross and Graham. Lynne loved her family and especially was proud of being an Aunt.

A service of thanksgiving and praise for Lynne's life will be held at 11:30 a.m. on Thursday, April, 20, 2017 at St. Mark's Lutheran Church, 600 Stevens Dr., Wausau. Reverend Bruce Lamont will officate and Reverend Nick Utphall of Advent Lutheran Church (where Lynne was a member in Madison) will share the message. Burial will be in Restlawn Memorial Park. Visitation will be at the church on Thursday from 9:00 a.m. until the time of services.
