When Lea, a Green Bay native, knocked on the door and entered, he found Lombardi and Marie relaxing in chairs. They smiled, introduced themselves, and peppered Lea with questions when they found out he had grown up in Green Bay. Where should we live? What are the good schools? Where are the best places to eat? They spoke for a half hour, and then Lea got his quotes and left. As he walked away he thought, Seems like a nice guy. Years later, Lea would recall that as one of the last pleasant conversations he had with Lombardi.
