June 8, 1940 — December 24, 2020

Richard "Dick" Schutt, 80, of Aurora Colorado passed away on December 24, 2020 of heart failure.

He was born to the late Carl and Ella Schutt on June 8, 1940 in Rockford, IA. Dick graduated from Mason City High School in 1958 and received a BA in teaching from the University of Northern Iowa. He was the first in his family to graduate from a four year university.

He was involved in the local Optimist Club, Rotary Club of Aurora, American Kennel Association, he was the Team Captain for his bowling league and was active with his church. In December of 1992, Dick had a very successful heart transplant which gave him 28 years of life that he lived to the fullest.
