Charlotte Schmit, age 69, died on Tuesday, December 14, 2021 at Regions Hospital in Saint Paul, MN. She was born the daughter of Bernard and Marilyn Beauvais on January 8, 1952 in New Richmond, WI. Charlotte grew up in Somerset graduating from Somerset High School, class of 1970. She married Wayne Schmit on December 11, 1971 at Saint Anne’s Catholic Church in Somerset, WI. Charlotte was a homemaker who enjoyed raising her children. Once the children were older, Charlotte worked for many years at Andersen Windows as well as many odds and ends tasks for her children. After retirement, Charlotte and Wayne spent their winters in Texas and Florida. She loved fishing, camping, and swimming as well as riding ATVs and Pontoons. Charlotte loved walking on the beach and dancing the night away to her favorite bands. She enjoyed watching her grandchildren in all their sporting activities. We will miss her cheering and whistling in the stands. You could hear her before you could see her. Charlotte was a problem solver who was caring and protective of her family. She loved being around her family. She will be greatly missed and will live on through everybody she has touched.

Rest in peace cousin! Remembering so many fun family get togethers over the years and your sassy, fun character and wit! Thoughts and prayers to Wayne and family.
Our deepest and heartfelt sympathy and prayers go out to Charlotte’s family. We are praying for all of you. May the Lord comfort you at this difficult time. Mary Swendson (Schaar) and family.
Words cannot express the sympathy I feel within my heart for you Wayne and family. Many fond memories from our youth as we would stay at Char’s house. God richly comfort each one.
With love

I’m so sorry to hear of Charlottes passing. I remember spending the night at her house making bologna and mayo sandwiches on toast. It’s funny what we remember. She was a wonderful cousin. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you.
Dear Wayne
I am a cousin of Mike Allen
It is sad that you lost your dear wife and your sister Maxine
I remember you from the parties at the farm. I am one of the Bixby girls but married in 1978 and last name now is Kinney. You have your children and grandchildren to keep you going during this difficult time. Heaven gained two wonderful women this week. May they both rest in God’s peace.
Our condolances to you and your family.
I send my condolences to all of Charlotte’s family.
It is disheartening to lose another classmate.
Charlotte was a very sweet person. She was older than me but that didn’t matter she treated me like family. We will all miss her very much. Rest in peace cousin. Til we meet again.
her great laugh is the first thing that comes to mind when we think of Char…blessings to Wayne and all of Chars family
Gone but not forgotten
