Fritz was born in Worland, Wyoming. Except for a tour in the army and
when working for USDA he has lived all of his life on the Fritz family
farm in the southern most part of Big Horn County.

87 years. Charles likes to raise crops and cattle. He says “I guess

He says he sees himself still farming 20 years down the road. Next
