Our comfort is knowing Fritz and Wilma are together and neither is ever to have pain again. Two wonderful people - we were so blessed to have had them in our lives for so many years - they were like our family. We loved them and will miss Fritz so much. Our prayers are with all the family. Our love, Elvin & Melva

To the wonderful family,
I'm so sorry for your loss. Fritz was a wonderful man and I so enjoyed visiting with him and hearing all his stories. He was so talented at making jewelry and I love the pieces he gave me. He was a great person and loved by all that knew him. I loved all the pictures he would show me of his family as he was so proud of all of you. I have really missed getting to visit with him over the past year. I always loved it when he called me to tell me he was in the building and I would get to come see him. Please know he is at peace and no longer suffering.
My thoughts and prayers are with all of you during this very difficult time in your lives.

Love,
Laura Geisler

I find it hard to say what I thought about Fritz. I am so sad to hear of his passing. He was a good man and an even better neighbor. I will miss him a great deal, but he is with Wilma now, and that is truly great. My prayers are with you, his family and all the friends he has left behind.

We really liked Fritz. We camped with him at Cedar Ridge Park, Moffat. We called him "Spider Man" because he made such nice spider jewelry with wire. He gave me several pieces. I will always treasure them. We will miss you, Fritz, Keep them laughing in Heaven!!!.
