Apology
A story in Tuesday’s Green Bay Press-Gazette about restaurant owner Julie Metzler’s death was wrong to include a paragraph about a court case involving her husband. The information should not have been in the story, and we were rightly criticized by readers who were offended by its inclusion.
Julie Metzler’s accomplishments as a parent, family member, businesswoman and community activist were admired by many. These accomplishments would be significant in any circumstance, but loom even larger when viewed in the light of her lengthy battle with illness. The love and respect earned by Julie Metzler was demonstrated this week in repeated outpourings of support for her family.
The Press-Gazette regrets publication of the information and the pain it caused her family. We apologize for this mistake.
