We have some unfortunate news to share. We were notified this evening by Max Perutz that his grandfather, Ritchie Boy Frederick Walter Perutz passed away yesterday, December 21, 2022 at 10:10am in Montecito, California at the age of 103. Many called him Fred or Fritz, but Max called him Opa. His grandfather was 1 in a billion. 103 1/2 years old and enjoyed every second of it. May his memory be for a blessing. | |||
