Marilyn Schultz

Marilyn “Mickey” Schultz, age 91, of Iron Mountain, died Saturday, July 1, 2023 at the Marshfield Medical Center in Iron Mountain. Mickey was born April 15, 1932, in Iron Mountain, daughter of the late Edward and Judith (Vicenzi) Meagher. She was a lifelong resident of the area and a 1950 graduate of Iron Mountain High School where she was a member of the National Honor Society. Mickey married George Schultz on June 27, 1953, at Saint Mary and Saint Joseph Catholic Church, and they raised two beautiful children together. George preceded her in death on September 26, 2002. Although she was a licensed radiologist at DCHS, she chose instead to leave and raise her young family. Eventually Mickey and George were part owners of St. George Glass where Mickey worked as a bookkeeper. Later on she worked as a bookkeeper for Northern Auto Supply. She was an active member of her church where she led the funeral luncheon committee for many years and was a leader of the local TOPS Weight Loss Support Group. Until the age of 90, Mickey volunteered for St. Vincent DePaul five days a week, even driving there herself. She deeply cherished her family and friends and loved to cook for them; she was an excellent cook! She also had a talent for making friends wherever she went, which was likely due to her great sense of humor. Mickey spent her last year at Evergreen Assisted Living where she was well cared for. We’re thankful for all the nurses, doctors, and staff at Evergreen who took such good care of her. Mickey is survived by her children, Michael (Laurie) Schultz of Niagara and Mary “Patt” Burgess of Iron Mountain; one brother, Teddy (Pat) Meagher of Iron Mountain; a granddaughter, Abby (Kevin) Kretz; and a great-grandson, George Kretz. Along with her parents and husband, George, she was preceded in death by two sisters, Germaine (Dudleigh) Schroeder and Corrine (Roger) Palmcook. Visitation will be held on Friday, July 7, from 9:00 AM until 10:45 AM at the Erickson Rochon and Nash Funeral Home. Funeral services will be held at 11 AM at Saint Mary and Saint Joseph Catholic Church. Msgr. Joseph Gouin will offer the Mass of Christian Burial and interment will be in the Dickinson County Memorial Gardens. In lieu of flowers, a memorial will be established in her memory.
