A message about the Frank Fritz scholarship from Frank's Family: 

The Frank Fritz Scholarship honors the remarkable legacy of Frank Fritz, whose compassionate spirit and dedication touched countless lives at Tampa General Hospital and beyond. As a trauma nurse and beloved educator, Frank inspired those around him, offering unwavering support, love, and encouragement to his colleagues, students, and patients alike. At home, Frank was the heart of his family—a loving husband and devoted father of three and grandfather of two who brought joy and warmth into every moment. Whether rebuilding his cherished '57 Chevy Bel-Air, refurbishing the family boat, or sharing his passion for fishing, Frank found happiness in the simple pleasures of life. Always present, he championed his children's dreams, especially on the baseball field, generously dedicating his time to support and mentor young athletes. Frank was the ultimate supporter, someone you could rely on without hesitation or judgment. By contributing to the Frank Fritz Scholarship, you help preserve his nurturing spirit, supporting future generations of healthcare professionals who embody Frank’s commitment to care, compassion, and community.
