John Truman Schulz, a resident of Pomona, MO passed away early Sunday morning, November 15, 2020 while at his home. He was born August 6, 1947 in Mountain Home, AR to George Earl and Cleffie Pauline (Moody) Schulz and was 73 years old.
John grew up along with his 14 siblings and attended school in Mountain View, MO. He married Sherry Lynn Rothermich on January 22, 1971 at Lost Camp Church, and to this union 3 children were born. John, who was known as “Pops” by everyone who knew him, was a hard worker. He was employed at Sparks Farm as a cattle rancher, and more recently for David Montgomery. He always enjoyed his co-workers throughout the years. John never met a stranger and was always available and willing to help a family member. However, it has been said that even though he liked to joke around, he was always brutally honest. He enjoyed hunting and loved to take his grandchildren to help them get their first deer. He will be dearly missed by his family, his friends, and all who knew him.
John is preceded in death by his wife, Sherry; a grandson, Zach Clinton; his parents; and a brother, Leamon Schulz.
He is survived by his children: Tina Clinton and her husband, Eric; Amy Reavis and her husband, Gary; Jonathan Schulz and his wife, Sunny; four grandchildren: Tyler Reavis (Taylor), Whitney Oravec (Trey), Austin Reavis, and Ethan Schulz; four great-grandchildren: Maci Clinton, Leighton Reavis, Landry Reavis, and Charli Oravec; 13 siblings: Norma, Tom, Wayne, Ray, Ed, Jimmy, Denny, Bobby, Kenny, Sharon, Peggy, Lois, and Wanda. He is further survived by numerous nieces and nephews.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations may be made to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital in his memory and may be left at the funeral home.
