Clark John Edward Schulte
Passed Away on September 9, 2017
Age 24 of Mahtomedi, MN
Clark was born in Des Moines, Iowa on October 16, 1992. He was the son of Nancy and John Schulte. When John passed away in 1999, the family moved to Mahtomedi where they attended St. Jude of the Lake School and Parish. Clark graduated in 2011 from Mahtomedi High School and went on to become a Bulldog at the University of Minnesota in Duluth. Following his college graduation, Clark worked as a mechanical engineer at Epic Systems in Madison, Wisconsin. When he was not working, he was an outdoors man who loved to go camping, fishing, hiking, and he enjoyed singing by the campfire. He was an Eagle Scout for Troop 433 of Mahtomedi. More than anything, his family was the center of his life. He especially adored time spent with his nieces, Vivian and Vera. Clark was extremely witty, humorous, thoughtful, intentional, and an astute problem solver. He will be immensely missed by everyone who knew him.
