Former colleagues stand by man suffering from debilitating disease

from Archive: Behind the Headlines · host Milwaukee Journal Sentinel

Bob Breitenbach was a respected, self-taught engineer at Standard Electric Supply. When Bob became sick with a deadly lung condition, his employer made accommodations for him, enabling him to work for as long as possible. When Bob could no longer work, his former co-workers rallied around him. Business reporter Rick Romell joins Behind the Headlines with the details of this heartwarming story. We’ll also hear from editor Jim Higgins on a new book chronicling Milwaukee’s early punk rock scene. And reporter Annysa Johnson discusses ways faith leaders are responding to President Donald Trump’s executive orders and the difficulty of navigating congregants through divisive political climates.
