Cathedral High School alumnus awarded WSMR Hall of Fame Award

Cathedral High School alumnus awarded WSMR Hall of Fame Award: receiving the medal of service is Mr. Andres Portillo as he inducted into the WSMR Hall of Fame. Andy as he is known to his alumni and friends prepares to receive the Man of the year award. On October 23, 2013 "Andres" Andy Portillo was inducted into the White Sands Missile Range Hall of Fame.  Birthplace of America's Missile and Space Activity.  I am happy to report that Andy now stands next to other honorees such as Doctor Werner von Braun, Rocket Scientist (1945-1950), Dr. George W. Gardiner, founder, NMSU's Physical Science Laboratory (1946-1961). Andy is a very active participant at his "OLD High School", known as "La Cate". Cathedral High school is at present celebrating its 92 year. He has held office in his alma mater for several year, holding office such as committee member, committee chairman, president and now a member of the board of directors handling duties as student scholarship chairman of the board over seeing the operation a $15,000 dollar alumni program.
