Parents of the Year
(Continued from page 5)
from her husband’s graduation a
few weeks later.
General Dwight D. Eisenhower
spoke at the graduation.
“He made us feel so proud,” she
said. “He was our national hero.”
After Hubert graduated with a
degree in veterinary medicine, he
and Goldie stayed in College Station.
Hubert taught in the College of Vet
erinary Medicine.
Looking back on those days, Hu
bert said he recalls being proud of
graduating from such a fine Univer
sity. He said he proved to himself
that dreams can become reality if
you work at them. His advice for stu
dents today is the same as lire advice
he has given his children for years.
“The world is full of opportuni
ties, but it is easy to cry and put your
hands out for the opportunities to
come to you,” he said. “They may
not.
“You must see an opportunity and
go after it. It is your key that will
open doors to the future. I’m living-
proof that if you want something
bad enough, like I wanted to play
college ball, you’ll get it if you work
hard.
“And if you don’t get it, it is not
meant to be. With the help of the
good Lord, 1 made the team but not
the pros. It wasn’t meant to be, be
cause maybe it would have spoiled
me.”
Hubert encourages students to
work hard, because he believes hard
work makes a person strong, he said.
He also said he believes in the power
of prayer and attends mass every
morning.
He said he goes by the old saying
that the family that prays together,
stays together, as his family has.
Both he and Goldie recommend
that students having problems in
school try to work them out.
“Even if school gets hard you
need to stick to it, because it is the
most memorable part of your life
and you won’t realize this until you
get out,” he said.
“It’s not all fun and games, but
you can make the grades and have
fun.”
Hubert practices veterinary medi
cine in Kingsville at Hubert Veteri
nary Hospital and works on his
ranch. Once a year, he donates time
and service to provide health care to
the Parsons Mounted Cavalry. He
also coaches a little league team in
his spare time.
“We farm a little and run cattle,
and I practice veterinary medicine in
an effort to repay the small national
debt we have incurred putting our
children through school,” he said
and then laughed. “I’m proud they
all have done, well in school. That
was my only requirement for them.”
The Hubert’s nine children met
their parents’ requirement. Four are
lawyers, one is a veterinarian and
four are teachers.
Mrs. Hubert is involved in the
Kingsville A&M Mother’s Club.
“Doc’s mother was a charter mem
ber,” she said. “I followed her foot
steps and have been a member as
long as our children have attended
the University.”
Every other year, Mrs. Hubert
hosts a “tasting party” at their ranch.
She said mothers from the club get
together to exchange recipes and
bake cookies to send to students at
A&M.
“Some of the best cooks in the
country are found in South Texas,”
she said with a hint of pride in her
voice. “Each of us brings a food dish
and a recipe, which is included in the
Texas A&M Recipe Book.”
Mrs. Hubert has been a church
organist tor 25 years. She says she
enjoys the music and plays regularly
at a local church and also at wed
dings and lunerals of all faiths.
“I enjoy helping others,” she said.
She said that by lending a hand
where a hand is needed, she is help
ing to do her part to strengthen the
local community.
As a member of the Foundation
Board of Kleberg Memorial Hospi
tal, she helps to raise money for
nursing scholarships in South Texas.
She also was appointed by the
county judge to the Juvenile Court
Advisory Board and the Kingsville
Historical Commission.
Mrs. Hubert teaches music to el
ementary school students at St. Ger
trude’s Catholic School in Riviera,
and attends school herself at Texas
A&I. She says she is excited that A&I
may soon be part of the A&M sys
tem.
“It is ironic that I, too, may grad
uate from A&M like the children ha
ve,” she said.
Mrs. Hubert takes pride in A&M.
“A&M is an extension of the fami
ly,” she said. “As Parents of the Year,
we plan on doing all we can for all
Aggies.”
Mr. Hubert says he wants students
at A&M to realize all that A&M has
to offer.
“I love all the traditions and all
Aggies,” he said. “The traditions
bond everyone together like love
bonds a family.”
