I am so sad to hear of Fritz's passing, I remember him well and we talked a few times mostly about soccer but I told him that my favorite uncle was also named Fritz and so he liked that, he was a wonderful role model in our community of Danville, Thank you Fritz we will miss you. Marlis Mara and family

I love you, Dad!

My heart breaks for cancer to take another lovely life and member of our community. Me and my family have such fond memories of Fritz on and off the soccer field. He taught lessons in life not just soccer. My dad Don passed from cancer in 2011, May they meet again in afterlife and talk soccer once again. Loveland hugs to your family. May time be swift in healing. Denise strength love in your
battle.

Sending heart felt condolences to Denise, Kirsten, and Ashley. I remember when you all came to visit your Aunt Sue Kasle in the house in Woodside. He was a sweet man and a popular coach (he coached my friends' kids in soccer). I'm so sorry for your loss. May he rest in peace.

Fritz coached our daughter for her Al Caffodio soccer career and was a memorable and positive influence in those formative years of her life. Thanks, Fritz, for all of the hours you devoted to her and to the youth in Danville...you have left your mark! We are thinking of you, Denise, Ashley and Kirsten, and know that you have wonderful memories of this man who shared so much with his community. Chris and Larry Jones

What a beautiful legacy you have left. Rest in PEACE.

A monumental task . He worked so hard that he actually slept on the carpet as business's moved in making sure his crew had provided telephone service for our customers come...
