Another prominent member of the Lomabrdi-era championship teams of the 1960’s has passed away. LT Bob Skoronski, who wore No. 76, protected the quarterbacks’ blind side in 1956, and again from 1959 to 1968 (although he missed the 1957 and 1958 seasons while serving in the United States Air Force). He played on Green Bay’s championship teams in 1961, 1962, 1965, 1966, and 1967, the Ice Bowl, and the first two Super Bowls. Skoronski was selected for the Pro Bowl in 1966 and was inducted into the Packers Hall of Fame in 1976. Our sympathies go out to the Skoronski family. More information here.
