Port San Antonio was proud to support the Dee Howard Foundation’s Aerospace Hall of Fame Luncheon on September 12, celebrating the leaders who transformed the closure of Kelly Air Force Base into a launchpad for innovation. 

Honorees included leaders who years ago helped lay the foundation of Port San Antonio alongside educators who are now driving our future here on Earth, and beyond!

The Chairman’s Award was presented to Wayne I. Fagan, co-founder of the Dee Howard Foundation and former senior VP and general counsel of The Dee Howard Co. Fagan was recognized for his tireless work in preserving San Antonio’s aviation legacy and expanding access to aerospace education. 

“Wayne has always believed that the future of aerospace starts in the classroom,” said Christopher Mammen, executive director of the foundation. “His leadership has helped thousands of students see themselves in this industry.”
