Danette, Tyler, and Ashley ... It's hard to find the right words to express our sorrow upon hearing that Fritz is gone. I'll always treasure the memories I have of working with Fritz at Wal-Mart, "porch sitting" on Friday afternoons, wrenching, and just hanging out. He was a great friend, and one of a kind. Fritz will be missed.

Danette and family, I am truly sorry for you loss.I was shocked to hear of Fritz’s passing. I hadn’t seen Fritz in years, too many. I always thought we would run into each other and have a beer reminiscing of old times not just at Walmart but also the many times we hung out just having a blast. Fritz was one of the most laid back and friendly guys I’ve ever had the privilege of knowing.

Danette and family, I was stunned to hear of Fritz's passing. I haven't seen him since we both left Walmart Marketing in the late 2000s. I worked with him closely many years at Walmart. I'm so very, very sorry for your loss. My sincerest, deepest sympathies to you and all the family. Prayers for you all.
