So sorry to hear about the loss of Dr Fritsch. He was my dentist for over 13 years. When can you say you ever looked forward to seeing YOUR dentist? I did. Sent me home with bacon once, spices, and other things to try. I´m going to miss that personality, good character

Your Dad was such a wonderful man. I´m so sad to hear of his passing. I was his first dental assistant. He was a wonderful boss and exceptional dentist. So talented in his dental arts. When later I became his student at the dental school in the hygiene program I would get nervous to go to work after class. He would randomly quiz me about all the dental anatomy he had taught in the class that day and I didn´t want to disappoint him. I learned so much about Dentistry because of him. Tom was also a dear friend, I just loved him. He was kind and thoughtful, fun loving, and good-hearted. He is gone too soon. It´s a tremendous loss. My condolences and prayers are with his wonderful family.

My family and I have seen Dr Fritch for a long time. My youngest autistic child then age 5 got very scared by a cruel pediatric dentist who was threatening her with more shots. Dr Fritch worked with her for over a a year building up her trust. She was initially so scared you couldn´t even go near her with a dental tool. He helped her over come her fears and she has readily and happily continued her dental care with him for the past 11 years. He was so kind to her.Truly a great dentist and a kind funny man.

I met Tom when we were firefighters on Southeast Rural Fire Department. Shortly after that I started going to him as my dentist. My deepest condolences to his family. I am truly going to miss seeing and talking to him.

Dr. Tom was not only my dentist for over 30 years, but a friend. I will miss him dearly. So many fun stories and chats over the years. He was a superb dentist, a comedian, an intellect, a fisherman, a cook, a rock hound, empathetic, compassionate, but again most importantly, a Friend.
My deepest condolences to his family. He truly was a GREAT man.

Dr. Fritsch was my dentist and friend for nearly 40 years. He was always a fun guy to chat with and made me feel at ease even non the few occasions that I might have a little serious dental work done. We talked about the cars and planes he had showcased about his office last time, but also talked about vacations and all. So sorry to lose him, as he seemd to never be in bad spirits or sick. My condolences to the family.
