Tonight we honored 144 members of the Ram Family who passed away this past year. As candles illuminated, we remembered the light each person brought and the lasting impact they continue to have at Angelo State and beyond. Fiat Lux.

On September 11, we remember. We remember the lives lost, the heroes who answered the call, and the spirit of courage, compassion, and service that united our nation. Each year, #AngeloState places 2,977 flags along the mall. May we never forget.

I appreciated joining community leaders welcoming Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy to San Angelo this afternoon. ASU’s commercial aviation program is preparing the next generation of aviation professionals, & investments in aviation strengthen our workforce, economy, & future.
