Here is a note Scott and I received today from a friend of Dr. Fricke. Liked to share with you all.
I just wanted to pass on my sincerest condolences to Doc’s family and all of you at the MGA, his second family. I know we all appreciated his time spent volunteering and his long-time support of the MGA. I can’t remember a first tee without him there, the first tee won’t be the same, he was the best. People may argue that his calling was to be a dentist, but for all us golfers it was the first tee. He truly made all of us feel special.
You know when they introduced him in heaven it had to go something like this: And from the vacation capital of the world, St. Joseph, Missouri, where the Pony Express started and Jesse James ended, a great husband, father, grandfather and friend Dr. Bill Fricke. Oh yeah, and one hell of a nice guy. Pat Britt

Dr. Henry W. Fricke, Jr. or as we all know him “FRICK” passed last night in a car accident.
There are no words to begin to express our deep sorrow.
All of us Scott, Randy, and myself, our Boatwright Interns past and present, MGA Directors and you the players will miss him horribly. He has touched so many of our lives.
He spent this last weekend at the lake with Erin, his daughter, and his grandaughters and then with all of us at the Father Son Championship at The Club at Porto Cima. He enjoyed every second of that. He has always said that is one of his favorite weekends of the season!
I would like to share a quote that he shared with me while he was battling cancer earlier this year.
HOPE. Start each day with it. But, more importantly, end each day with ACCEPTANCE of whatever happened. Then go on from there.
We love you Frick! God Speed. And thanks for sending down the rain today. We know you had a hand in it.
HE SO LOVED ALL OF YOU!
Feel free to write your comments on this page. We will be sure that Barb, John and Erin see them.
