Lee Remmel, a Green Bay icon who was there for the days of Curly Lambeau and Don Hutson, of Mike McCarthy and , and of everyone in between, has died at the age of 90.
Remmel, who worked first as a reporter for the Green Bay Press-Gazette and then for the Packers as a PR man and team historian, spent a total of 62 years working with and around the team.
In Remmel’s first season as a reporter, in 1945, Lambeau was the coach and the team hadn’t yet moved into the Field that bears his name, playing instead at Green Bay’s City Stadium.
