Remember Jesus & God Love all of ya?ll? John (Chaddy) Schratz? John spent 53 years in the pharmaceutical industry as a medical sales representative for Proctor & Gamble, Merz, and ultimately, in his so called ?retirement? with US Compounding. Often referred to as ?The Godfather of Pharmaceutical Sales? and ?The Legend?, he won multiple national sales awards. However, the highlight of his career is the John C Schratz Dedication Award given annually and established to honor his selfless dedication and invaluable impact on the growth and success of US Compounding. He loved what he did and was great at it. John?s love of music and travel was passed down to his children and grandchildren. His love of music developed early on, listening to his father, Bruce, play boogie woogie, ragtime, blues and jazz on the piano. Due to his heritage, he had a keen interest in German culture and enjoyed his trips abroad nearly as much as the coast-to-coast family camping trips. John was a jokester. Never tiring from his one-liners, he simply refused to let the fact that he had told you a joke before prevent him from telling it a third or fourth time.

Funeral Mass will be at Christ the King Catholic Church on Friday, December 29, at 10:00 am. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that memorials in John?s name be made to the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation, Crohn?s & Colitis Foundation or a charity of choice. The family would like to thank Steven W Hutchins, MD, Angela K Nutt, MD and their staffs for the dedicated care you gave to John.
