In a celebration of what would have been Dr. Hector P. Garcia’s 104th birthday, hundreds of community members attended the Dr. Hector P. Garcia Memorial Foundation luncheon on Jan. 17. During the luncheon, Texas A&M-Corpus Christi President and CEO, Dr. Kelly Quintanilla, was presented with the Garcia Memorial Foundation Legacy Award, from Cecilia Garcia Akers, Dr. Garcia’s daughter, for supporting the mission of the foundation, which includes “ensuring equal rights and access to opportunity for all.”
