All this week on La Crosse Talk, we've been remembering community leader and volunteer Pat Stephens. 

Pat passed away this week at the age of 77.

Pat Stephens was a Riverfest Commodore and so is Bill Hoel.

Pat and Bill were longtime friends and colleagues.

They collaborated on a number of charitable events in the La Crosse including Riverfest and the Freedom Honor Flight.

Sean Dwyer had a chance to talk to Bill about his friend Pat Stephens.
