Fritz worked for Warren Paper Company and was transferred to Muskegon, Michigan in 1975. While in Muskegon he took up golf and he bowled for many years on bowling leagues. In 1978, Fritz was transferred and moved his family back to Maine. Fritz loved the Maine beaches, where he and his family spent many summers together, along with camping in Naples, Maine.
