“American Pickers” star Frank Fritz, who traveled across America looking for treasurers in the most random corners, died Monday after a long illness, loved ones said.

He was 60.

“This is a very tough announcement to make Frank passed away last night around 7:30,” according to a post on the Facebook page of Fritz’s friends.

“Pickers” co-star Mike Wolfe said he knew Fritz for more than “half my life” and told fans that his late friend was a genuinely kind man.
