Businessman and sports executive Jerry Colangelo has done more to shape the Valley in his 50 years here than just about any other single individual. Wednesday, a museum honoring him opened at Grand Canyon University.
“I’ve been a strong believer all my life,” Colangelo said. “And I believe that God had a plan for my life and it was meant for me to come to Arizona with a young family and get started and be part of what was going to take place in this state for the next 40-50 years. And so, for all of that again I’m very thankful for the opportunity.
“Phoenix has been a great home for us and I’m very appreciative of that.”
