Zachary "Zach" Jason Schuette

Charlotte - Zachary “Zach” Jason Schuette, 19, was called home to be with God on June 6, 2020. He was born on November 22, 2000 in Lima, Ohio. He was currently attending Central Piedmont Community College.

Zach is survived by his parents, Abby and Rick; his brother, Austin; and his dog, Bandit. He also leaves behind his maternal grandparents, Bill and Del Losinski; aunt, Eden Childress; cousins, Alannah, Leah, and Skyla; his uncle, Mark Schuette; aunt, Cindy Ward (Steve); cousin, Jessica Ward; and various other family members.

He was preceded in death by his paternal grandparents, Darwin and Juanita Schuette, and his cousin, Megan Ward.

Zach enjoyed writing music, collecting shoes and spending time with his friends.

Zach had a big heart and always stood up for those that were less fortunate. He loved to laugh and loved watching comedies. He had an exorbitant amount of storms during his short life and suffered tremendously because of them. He was misunderstood and was often misjudged. He is now free of the pain.

A private Funeral Mass will be held in his honor at St. Matthew Catholic Church.

I carry your heart with me (I carry it in)

BY E. E. CUMMINGS

I carry your heart with me

(I carry it in my heart)

I am never without it

(anywhere I go you go, my dear; and whatever is done

by only me is your doing, my darling)

I fear no fate

(for you are my fate, my sweet)

I want no world

(for beautiful you are my world, my true)

And it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant

And whatever a sun will always sing is you

Here is the deepest secret nobody knows

(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud

and the sky of the sky of a tree called life; which

grows higher than soul can hope or mind can hide)

And this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart:

I carry your heart

(I carry it in my heart)
