LACRESCENT, Minn. – Phyllis C. Fredricks, 86, of La Crescent and formerly of La Crosse, a nurse and later a medical records clerk at Gundersen hospital, died at Springbrook Village in La Crescent. She was a 1955 graduate of Winona High School. She trained to be registered nurse at St. Marys School of Practical Nursing in Rochester. Later she attended Viterbo University and Winona State University for a degree in health education. In retirement she wintered on the Florida gulf coast. She was serious about hunting for the Oktoberfest medallion in LaCrosse and would get up before dawn to sweet-talk the men loading delivery trucks behind the Tribune building for a look at the daily clue before the papers hit newsstands. They never said no, her family said.
