Sad News... the passing of Leonard Fritz

In case you did not hear yet, Leonard Fritz just died. He was one of those old scouters who never let go of the traditions of scouting and he was certainly a benefactor to our troop. As long as I have been scoutmaster, each year in May he sends a check to the troop to “help out with camp.” He has two boys who are Eagle scouts. I can’t tell you how many times he stopped by the office here with a book or an article—he even dropped off his old hunting clothes to be given to a boy (complete with boots). I saw him last 3 weeks ago. He was a very stabilizing influence in the transition when I became scoutmaster.

God bless Leonard Fritz.
