James “Jim” F. Schutte, age 84, of Quincy, died on June 23, 2026 in Blessing Hospital. He was born on January 8, 1942 in Quincy, the son of Rome and Margaret (Wilson) Schutte. He married Marcia A. Stonewall on November 28, 1964 in St. Thomas Church, she survives.

Jim graduated from Central High School in 1960. He was a member of St. Peter Catholic Church, Home Builders Association of Quincy and Spring Lake Country Club.

Jim owned and operated Jim Schutte Builder. He was well-known back in the day as a quality home-builder. He left his mark all throughout our community of Quincy. He had a passion for carpenter work. It wasn’t just a ‘job’, it was who he was. His work ethic was second to none. His wife was a huge part of the business working by his side and doing his office work. He taught each of his children his trade as he took them on the job with him to learn the skills which they each use in their careers today. Some of them still live in houses that he built for them!

In his early years, Jim loved playing tennis. He met many friends at Sheridan Swim Club on the tennis courts. He was also a member at Quincy Racquet Club and was a fierce competitor. Later in life, he simply enjoyed sitting outside enjoying God’s beauty. He especially enjoyed a waterfront view and going on vacation to a warm climate. He loved spending time with his family, friends, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Family gatherings were one of the most special things he treasured.

In addition to his loving wife, he is survived by his children: Jamie Mayer of Rogers, AR, Jeff (Tracy) Schutte, Jill Schuckman, and Jeanne (Brian) Anderson all of Quincy.

Grandchildren: Collin (LauraBeth) Mayer, Alexis Mayer, Parker (Sierra) Schutte, Dale Schutte, Maggie (Cooper Larson) Schutte, Kaitlin Schuckman, Kohl (Nicole) Schuckman, Keaton (Amanda) Schuckman, Kyra (Brady) Nierman, Isabella Anderson, Seth Anderson, and Tanner Anderson.

Great-Grandchildren: Callahan Mayer, Rory Schutte, Kolson Schuckman, Karsyn Schuckman, and Elijah Schuckman.
