Not sure what to say?

My many memories of Fitz go back to 1940 in grade school and continue unbroken until he passed - he was very special, unique and loved. If all goes well we will meet again. Ann, hope all is well with you and family.

Thinking of Fitz . . . can still hear his voice and he is missed.

Dear Ann and Family,

Fitz was such a mainstay - an icon in the community, and on the periphery of my family for more than 60 years. My grandfather, Don, looked to Fitz for friendship, financial advice, and laughs longer than I can remember. Grandpa died a couple of months ago, but right up to the months before he passed, he often shared fond stories of his interactions with Fitz.

What an incredible man he was; I was sad to hear of his passing. It's my sincere hope that...

To the Fitz Brewer Family:
I have fond memories of Fitz coming through the Main branch of First Interstate Bank (downtown) with his duck call (the '80's). He was one of the first "Ducks" I met when I came to Medford. He was also one of the first I called when I returned to the Rogue Valley in 2006. He will be missed by everone who ever met him and saw his great smile and always positive attitude. I know he will be looking down on us all and reminding us of our obligation to fully...

As we start off to our fortieth U of O Reunion/Homecoming at the Lodge in Eugene this weekend, I'm thinking a special toast will be made in honor of our exhaulted Brother in the Bonds.

Dear Ann & Family,
Beth and I were deeply saddened to learn of Fitz's passing and our thoughts are with you and the family during this difficult time. We are forever indebted to Fitz for all the effort and help he provided to introduce us to the Medford community when we resided there. He was so supportive of me and willing to provice assistance and advice whenever I asked. He is a great loss to the community and I will miss him and his calls he continued to make to me even after we...

Tom and Family,
We are so very sorry for your loss. You and I worked together at US Bank in Tigard and I know how fond you were of your Father. God bless you and your family as you go through this difficult time.
Love, Linda and Ken

Ann and family,
We were so shocked and saddened to hear of Fitz's passing. He was such a joy to be around. Even better since he was a Duck too. We only knew Fitz through the Lehner girls but loved every minute we shared with him at the family gatherings. Our thoughts and prayers and lovely memories are with you all. He was truly "one of a kind"!
Love, Mike and Patty Lehner

I am very saddened to hear of Fitz's passing and at the same time I'm very happy to have known him. Fitz was always Fitz no matter what.I remember the Shriner's All Star game in Portland where Fitz excelled. I had the pleasure of pledging him into ChiPsi.He and Del Clemmens were a pair of book ends and provided a lot of entertainment in the Lodge.I can't help but remember what a great guy he was and cherish the many Fun time we had together.
Our sincere thoughts and prayers go out to...
