Surrounded by his loved ones, longtime Denver Broncos owner Pat Bowlen passed away Thursday night after enduring a five-year battle with Alzheimer’s. In meeting a final request from the late owner, his family released the statement, “Heaven got a little bit more orange and blue tonight,” as they also stated, “His soul will live on through the Broncos, the city of Denver and all of our fans.”
Bowlen saw his Broncos play numerous successful seasons, witnessing three Super Bowl victories, most recently their Super Bowl Victory win over the Carolina Panthers almost four years ago. Bowlen also recently received a bid to the Pro Football Hall of Fame with his enrichment scheduled for this upcoming August.
