Connie Hagar Wildlife
Sanctuary: extends along the coastline from Cove Harbor to the shores of
both the Aransas and Matagorda Island Wildlife Refuges. Historical Marker:
Texas State Historical Commission breaks tradition and honors Connie Hagar with a
historical marker allowing the dedication to take place several years earlier than
usual following an individual's death.
Gravesites of Connie and
Jack Hagar: Jack died August 20, 1962, and Connie passed away
on November 29, 1973. Both were laid to rest at the Rockport Cemetery,
which overlooks Connie's favorite birding spot, Little Bay and what used
to be Frandolig Island (now Key Allegro). |
