Story about Danny Gokey... the Idol finalist from Milwaukee. It's even Packer and Crew related.

Later Friday, Gokey was expected to sing at his church, Faith Builders International Ministries, on Milwaukee's south side. He volunteered as song director at the church before auditioning for "Idol."
His audition came four weeks after his wife, Sophia, died of a congenital heart defect. The couple had agreed he would try out for the show, and Gokey has called her his "biggest inspiration."
The city is hosting a parade with Green Bay Packers players Aaron Rodgers, Greg Jennings, Nick Barnett and Ruvell Martin. It will end at the lakefront festival grounds, where Gokey will sing again.
Gokey will end the day throwing out the first pitch and singing the national anthem before a Brewers-Cubs game at Miller Park.
