In Loving Memory of a Beloved Son, Brother, and Uncle

With profound sadness and enduring love, we announce the passing of Jason Adam Schulz, 51, of Monett, MO on 7/31/2025.

Survived by his loving family including his parents Jack and Peggy Schulz, his siblings Michelle (Steve) Klos and Jared (Shawnna) Schulz. He will be greatly missed by his beloved nieces and nephews: Ashley, Spencer, Emily, Reilynn, and Maddox.

Services and a Celebration of Life will be held at later date to be determined. We hope you can join us in sharing a favorite photo, memory, or funny story at that time.

He is a 1993 graduate of Monett High School and a 1997 graduate of Missouri Southern State University with a degree in Industrial Engineering Technology. Jason was a proud and devoted member of the Kappa Alpha Order, where he found both brotherhood and purpose. As a member of the Delta Pi chapter, he served in several officer roles with distinction: always leading with integrity, humility, and a deep respect for the traditions of the Order. His commitment to the fraternity extended far beyond titles – Jason was a cornerstone of chapter life, known for his unwavering support, thoughtful mentorship, and tireless involvement. He fully embraced the principles of Kappa Alpha Order, living out the values of reverence, gentility, knowledge, leadership, brotherhood, and excellence in all that he did. Jason didn’t just speak of honor – he exemplified it. His presence enriched the lives of his brothers and left a lasting legacy within the chapter that will be remembered for years to come.

Jason was deeply committed to advancing the equipment developed by his family’s business, Clark Industries, Inc. Working tirelessly alongside his father, brother, and dedicated co-workers, he played a vital role in installing and supporting equipment across the United States and Canada. His perseverance and professionalism earned him the respect of countless customers— many of whom became close friends over the years.

Jason adored his nieces and nephews, always inquiring about their activities and well-being, and was a proud uncle when hearing about their accomplishments.

Though his journey with a rare, aggressive cancer was marked by trials, he met every challenge with the same determination, humor, and ingenuity that defined his life. He faced the darkest moments with a joke, a wry smile, or a clever quip, lifting the spirits of those around him. His laughter, even in times of pain, was a reminder of his indomitable spirit.

Born with an unquenchable curiosity and a gift for all things mechanical, he was the one who could fix anything—no matter how complex, no matter how broken. From a young age, he delighted in taking things apart and, more importantly, putting them back together, often finding solutions that eluded others. Whether it was a stubborn engine, a household gadget, or a friend’s broken spirit, he always found a way to make things work again.

Strong-willed and fiercely independent, he lived life on his own terms. He never shied away from a challenge, and approached each day with purpose, resolve, and a deep love of God. His stubbornness was legendary, but it was always matched by his generosity and his willingness to lend a hand or share a hard-earned lesson.

He leaves behind a family who loved him beyond measure, who will forever miss his quick wit, his wicked giggle, and his steadfast support. His legacy lives on in every engine that hums again, every problem solved, and every memory of laughter shared.

Though we mourn his loss, we celebrate a life lived with courage, creativity, and kindness. He taught us to persevere, to find humor amidst hardship, and to approach every challenge with curiosity and heart. May he rest in peace, remembered always for the joy he brought into our lives and the countless ways he made our world a little brighter and run a little better Rest easy J. In lieu of flowers, please consider donations in Jason’s honor to the charity of your choice or the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society.

Arrangements are under the direction of White Funeral Home and Crematory.
