A simple kid, grew up w/no Dad & lost my Mom when I was 17, beginning my senior yr of HS. Working since I was 10 y/o, honest, repsonsible & reliable! Grew up in Sheboygan, began watching the Green & Gold w/my best friend who was killed during the winter of the 6th grade. I always wanted to play, never could, not big enough. After graduating HS, I weighed 118 lbs, soaking wet holding a brick! I watched, observed & learned, not only the what, how, why but, also the when! I Love the game & art of football, I Love our Green Bay Packers & I am proud & honored to tell people, anywhere anytime, who I cheer for & "is the Best Team & Organization" in all of pro sports, period...... I am Green & Gold baby, through & threw! Thanks for hrs & hrs, upon days, wks, months & yrs of ups, down, success, thrills & near misses, from the heart, down to my soul, I Love The Green Bay Packers!! For my birthday a couple yrs ago, my loving wife took me to Lambeau, it was one of the greatest days of my entire life. I seen the sacred ground, touched & kissed the grass! I then was introduced to one of my "All time Favorites" & new friend, Mr. LeRoy Butler! This man had the decentcy to Thank me for coming on the tour, & telling me how greateful he was for fans like me, shook "my hand", just another guy of the street? So, I would think, but then he gave me a hug & told me, he was my friend! Touched, Honored doesn't come close, I cried like a baby. And he just held on!
