In Memoriam

Fritz White (1930 - 2010)

   On Sunday, April 11th, Fritz White passed away after a long illness.

   Fritz White was born on January 14, 1930 in Milford, Ohio near Cincinnati. The Little Miami River, which borders Cincinnati on the east, was a main thoroughfare north and south for the Shawnee tribes that were settled throughout Ohio. Artifacts of the Shawnees, Miamis, Mingos and even mound builders were common to the area. From these artifacts, his interest in the Native American people and their mythology was kindled.
   Throughout his lifetime, Fritz shared his talents with others, teaching numerous educational sessions with young artists and conducting sculpture classes for the visually impaired. In addition to being a member of the Cowboy Artists of America, White was a member of the National Sculpture Society. Fritz's numerous awards include Gold and Silver Medals from the Cowboy Artists of America and the Northwest Rendezvous of Art.

   Fritz is survived by his wife Ina, children Patrick White, Dana White, Stephanie White and Kimberly Hicks and grandchildren Jesse Rankin, Allison Hicks, Kaitlyn Hicks, Parker Hicks, Elijah Gomis and Grace Gomis.
