As a result of his long and fruitful career as an entomologist, my father received many awards and honors including from three U.S. Presidents, other heads of state, several universities, numerous farm organizations, professional societies, international organizations, and his peers. I’ve listed some of the prominent ones here. One not listed however, of which he was most proud, was being named the first inductee into the Calhoun County (Texas) Cattlemen’s Association Hall of Fame in 1994 in his home town of Port Lavaca, Texas.
