Racine – Mark Richard Schultz, 62, passed away at Ascension All Saints Hospital on Thursday, October 20, 2016. He was born in Racine on November 12, 1953, son of the late Richard and Maria (nee: MacDonald) Schultz. Shortly after graduating from Horlick High School in 1971, Mark served in the US Army as an EOD specialist. On January 4, 1992 he was married to Mary Ellen Conklin.
Mark devoted many years working as an inspector at Jacobsen Manufacturing. In his free time, he enjoyed dancing (of which he instructed and loved doing with his wife), fishing and golf; woodworking and home repair; and working in his vegetable garden. He was a family man through and through, and a true man of God.
Mark is survived by his devoted wife, Mary Schultz; daughter Elizabeth (Anthony) Alvarado of Racine; grandchildren Lucinda Alvarado, Marcus Alvarado, Max Mercury Alvarado, and Anthony Alvarado Jr. all of Racine; brothers David Schultz of Racine and Richard (Ning Wang) Schultz of Indiana; nieces Rachael (James) Sizemore, JiaBao Wang, and JiaBei Wang; nephews Damian Christopherson and Mario Christopherson; and many other relatives and friends.

Gone but not forgotten. I’m glad I saw Mark recently and was able to catch up after many years. I’m feel fortunate our families were always close.
George Chardukian says
Mark,
You were my very best friend as we grew up together through elementary, junior high and then high school. I regret that we did not connect often after I moved to AZ in 1982 for which I take responsibility. I know that I will never have a friend as sweet, loyal, gentle and as humble as you.
God sent you to earth as an angel to all that knew you, especially me.
May God now be overjoyed welcoming you home my friend.
Deeply saddened,
George Chardukian

Thank you Ty, he would always talk about the Chardukies! I’m so glad he had you guys.
Also thank you Louie and Ruby, as well!
He was truly blessed having friends and family that loved him so much. I’m really going to miss my dad, but I’m glad he is with the Lord now. R.I.P. Dad. You were an amazing dad and great husband to my mom!! <3<3

I’ve heard so much about you George. I know he wouldn’t have been upset with you for moving. God puts us in the places we need to be, and he truly loved all of his friends and family. Like I was saying to Ty, he was always talking about the Chardukies! =)
Hang in there and may God bless you both! Actually really happy to see you guys write on here, I’m sure he is very happy about that.
Much love,
