    So sorry to hear of your loss - Fizz was a really great person and he and MaryAnn were good to my parents (Jim & Katherine Graham). I remember him coming up to the back porch and leaning on the railing and talking. He was also very dedicated to placing American Flags on all veterans. I will miss visiting with him when I travel to Ohio. I always tried to stop for a short visit. He was good at giving me a hard time. May he rest in peace.
