Olivia Schutz

Olivia Rose Schutz, 18 months, went to be with our Lord on Sunday, October 19, 2014, at her home in Wahpeton, ND, under the care of her loving family and hospice.

The Funeral Service will be Wednesday, 6:00 PM at Willow Creek Chapel, Wahpeton, with Rev. Dean Bjorlin officiating. Visitation will be from 5 PM to 6 PM at Willow Creek Chapel. Interment will be at Eagle Cemetery, rural Christine, ND, on Thursday. Arrangements are entrusted with Vertin-Munson Funeral Home, Wahpeton.

Olivia Rose Schutz was born April 12, 2013, at Fargo, ND, the daughter of Sarah Schutz and Jordon Gregor. Olivia was born with Triploid Syndrome, a chromosomal abnormality. Olivia far outlived her life expectancy. She was a beautiful baby girl who touched so many lives in such a brief time. Whether it was her right thumb in her mouth, the slight squint in one eye, or her soft cooing; she will be deeply missed by her family. Her celebration of her monumental first birthday, in which she tasted cake frosting for the first time, will be a cherished memory.

Olivia is deeply loved by her mommy, Sarah, daddy, Jordan; brothers and sister: Lillian, Connor, Zander, Hunter, Donovan; her maternal grandparents, Clarence and Nancy Schutz, her paternal grandparents, Kathy and Tim Schultz; a paternal great-grandmother, Janis Johnson; four uncles, five aunts, including a very dedicated caregiving aunt, Cathy Schutz.

She will be greeted in Heaven by her great-grandfather, Gary Johnson and other family members who preceded Olivia.
