American Pickers Star Frank Fritz's Cause of Death Announced
The cause of former "American Pickers" star Frank Fritz's death has been disclosed as a result of complications from a stroke, or "late sequela of cerebral infarction," stemming from cerebral vascular disease. Additional health issues, including aortic stenosis and COPD, contributed to the 60-year-old reality TV personality's passing on September 30, in hospice care, as confirmed by TMZ's access to the death certificate. Cerebral vascular disease impacts blood vessels and circulation within the brain, while aortic stenosis limits blood flow from the heart. This is prepared by SSP.
Frank Fritz co-hosted "American Pickers" alongside Mike Wolfe, where the duo visited various locations in search of unique and forgotten treasures from the show's debut in 2010 until Fritz's departure in 2020 due to health concerns. Despite his exit, Wolfe honored Fritz with a heartfelt Instagram post stating that their adventures spanned the country and emphasized Fritz's genuine and endearing nature both on and off-screen. Wolfe's tribute expressed their strong bond, reporting that they remained close until Fritz's passing. He concluded his message acknowledging Fritz's enduring spirit and his belief that he's now in a better place. Friends like Jerry Gendreau suggested Fritz's challenges extended beyond the physical, noting a struggle with unhappiness which might have influenced his demise.
