I lived across the street at 3842 Central. Milt was always a good and caring neighbor especially when my mom and sister passed away in 1971. He was always very friendly to my dad and I. He was a truly wonderful man.

Jeanette and family.
We were sad to hear of Milt's passing. I took a photography class from him and Dave painted with him many times. He was a gentle, kind, interesting and interested man. May his memories be sweet. We will be donating to the BRC toward the Siskiwit Falls project in his memory.

Mr. Fanta was a amazing person. I had the benefits of spending my entire summers in his presence at Cornucopia , Wi. He taught me secrete tricks on how to fish in the streams.
My heart is filled with happy thoughts and I know I am a better person by knowing Milton Fanta.

Mr. Fanta has a special place in the hearts of the Matkovcik family. He was a life-long friend for my father and he, together with Mrs. Fanta, provided a valuable friendship to both my parents.
Whenever I had the chance to talk with him he was always interested in what I was up to at the time and what my plans were for the future.
He taught me how to sail in the Sunfish and, together with his sons, sparked my interest in gymnastics which would later become a very beneficial phase in my own life.
The Matkovcik hearts go out to Mrs. Fanta,
Charlie, Tom, Jenny, Nancy and Amy and the extended Fanta family.
