Claire Phillip "Fitch" Rousseau

I was sad to hear that Uncle Fitch passed away and that the LARGE Rousseau family is not so large any more.

My thoughts and prayers are with Aunt Barbara and Annette.

Just wanted to add to the "haircuts in the back yard note", that when my father, Ed, was very ill, Uncle Fitch came over and gave him a haircut out on the patio. Dad was too ill and on oxygen to leave the house, and it was great that Uncle Fitch came to him, during the last month of my Dad's...

I have so much to say to a brave sailor giving up his life and from a younger sailor his niece.I learned to travel get along with people and go on in life.

Dear Aunt Barbara and Annette, I have such warm memories of Uncle Fitch, going abaloneing and bringing us tons of 'ashtrays,' cutting Dad's hair in the backyard, and laughing as the hair flew everywhere! He is with Dad now, and they are a pair. Love, Denise

Fitch was a character of his own and like a father I looked up to him. When he was 34 I thought he was an old man. I love Fitch and will remember and pray for him as long as I live. He was # 1. It was a sad day for me I lost a favorite uncle and friend indeed.

Dear Barbara and Annette,
What can I say? Fitch was loved by everyone and served as a perfect example of what a husband and father should be. I loved Fitch so much. He will be greatly missed but his memory will always be cherished. I have so many memories of dinners at your house and all the delicious meals you all prepared. Thank you for giving me those memories. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Love, Kelly
