Green Bay Packers vs. Denver Broncos
The Green Bay Packers and WPS Health Solutions paid special tribute to Marine Corps veteran Kim Graff and her family during Sunday’s Packers-Broncos game for Operation Fan Mail.
A Waunakee, Wis., native, Graff was in the Marine Corps from 2012 to 2018, serving as a chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear defense specialist. She deployed to the South Pacific and Australia in 2015.
Graff has been honored numerous times for her service, both as the Wisconsin Department of Veterans Affairs Woman Veteran of the Year and the Wisconsin Assembly’s Hometown Hero. Since ending active military service, she has been a strong supporter of veterans and women in the military, advocating for two bills in the state Legislature to help military families in Wisconsin, as well as raising money for homeless veterans.
She is studying at the University of Wisconsin-Madison to earn her second master’s degree to become a high school and English as a Second Language (ESL) teacher, and she currently works as a paraprofessional in the Milton School District.
Graff lives in Oregon, Wis., with her family, and attended Sunday’s game with her husband, Marine Corps Gunnery Sergeant William Graff; her friend, Kit Amidzich; and her mother, Robin Shriver.
