GREEN BAY, Wis. (WRN) — Memorial services are set for longtime Green Bay Packers president Bob Harlan.
A visitation and funeral Mass will be held March 16th at St. Francis Xavier Cathedral in Green Bay, with a public Celebration of Life following that same day in the Atrium at Lambeau Field. Harlan, who served as Packers President and CEO for nearly two decades, died last week at age 89.
After joining the Packers organization in 1971, he ascended to the team’s presidency in 1989 and helmed a reorganization of the franchise that led to a Super Bowl XXXI victory in 1997, and a nearly $300 million refurbishing of Lambeau Field. Harlan stepped down from his position in 2008.
