I will miss Frank, just like all of you, and I pray for the very best and all good things for him on the next part of his journey.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Fritz&#8217;s last episode of <em>American Pickers<\/em> was in March 2020. He did not return with the show following the COVID-19 pandemic, with Fritz citing back surgery and ongoing complications from Crohn&#8217;s disease as reasons for staying off the show.
