Heidi Schmidt

Heidi Michelle Schmidt, 54, of Motley, passed peacefully at home March 20, 2023, holding her husband Mike’s hands, after her 14 month journey with cancer.

A “Send-Off” will be celebrated on Sunday, July 8, 2023, at their home. Follow their Caring Bridge Site for details.

Heidi was born October 20, 1968. She graduated from Chisholm High School and moved to Brainerd in 1986. She graduated with a two-year accounting degree from Central Lake College and began her career with Wal-Mart (Store #1654) on May 18, 1991. She was proud to call herself an Associate to so many...and her smile and laugh could be seen and heard from aisles away.

Heidi and Mike were married on June 10, 1998 at Disney World with daughters Carissa and Corrina as their attendants. Camryn and Cade were not far behind over the next few years. Together, they played, traveled, grew, endured, lived and loved. The memories now are just that. However, Heidi was instrumental in ensuring they were made.

She had a passion for supporting her children, husband, friends and friendships. She enjoyed family, laughing, decorating, traveling, music, sunshine, water and having green grass under her feet. She truly enjoyed sharing the simplest of times and knew how to “just be”.

Heidi is survived by her husband; three daughters, Carissa (Ron) Ozan, Corrina Schmidt with son, Samuel (grandson) and Camryn (Ryle) Jordan; one son, Cade Schmidt; friends and extended family... and all of “Team 417”.

“Heidi, my love, it was an honor to be yours. What an ‘us’ we shared.”

Arrangements are by Taylor Funeral Home of Staples.
