    Default Gone West

    It saddens me to inform everyone that a fellow kitfoxer has gone west. Lee Fritz passed Tuesday evening after a fight with cancer. The first kitfox I ever rode in was Lee's model 4. Lee loved flying, and put hundreds of hours on his kitfox in just a few years. He was a good friend and will be greatly missed.
    God speed Lee

    Nick,
    Thanks for posting. We all hate to hear things like this but we know it's reality. It's especially hard when it's a good friend. You are a lucky man to have had Lee as your friend. Treasure your time together.

    Sorry to hear. It brings up thoughts of others from our Kitfox circle who have gone as well. Never easy.

    Lee will be missed so much. This guy had character. He set up a couple cots for me and a friend when we stopped on our way to Shreveport North for Fathers day fly in. In so many ways he was a good guy. So sad. -Tom (Lion8)
