Two former Packers alumni pass away on Tuesday
-- A pair of former Green Bay Packers -- both on the field and in the front office -- passed away recently.Bob Skoronski, a member of Vince Lombardi's championship teams in the 1960s, died as a result of Alzheimer's disease Tuesday morning. He was 84.
Skoronski was one of the more underrated members of those teams. At least according to his former teammate Gary Knafecl, who, according to the team's press release, echoed that sentiment in 2016. "Bob was probably the smartest guy on our ball club. He could do it all. Bob was so good, nobody even thought about him. He was so underrated.
"Jerry [Kramer] and Fuzzy [Thurston] were always talking. Bob never said a word, just out-blocked everybody."
