This man is such a joy to be around! At nearly 92 years old he is still driving and living independently in his home. He loves to laugh and tell stories of his younger years. I had to laugh when he was describing his brother who "...died real young. He was only 71." I guess when you're in your 90's, the 70's are "real young!" He treated us to lunch out, watched the boys play catch in his back yard, and pulled out his high school year book to show us. He has such a great attitude despite the hardships of life. He has buried two wives, and it hurts to see him so lonely. Grandma Rita died about a year and a half ago, but he says "she still sits here arguing baseball calls with me every night" as he watches the Reds on TV. "I'll never get over that girl. I tell you, I never will." Sweet. We love you, Great Grandpa Fritsch!

Are you growing your hair long again? I can't tell from the picture. Just curious?! :)
