I have always looked forward to visiting every year in Green Bay more because of the people than the games. Fish on Friday at a local restaurant with everyone is a highlight and I chose to sit next to Steve every time because of his stories of days gone by, our similar assessments of the world and his probing questions about healthcare. He unfortunately couldn´t overcome these latest challenges and now is at rest. My heart goes out to Kay and his wonderful family. ""DOC"
