Description

We’re excited to welcome Patrick “Marty” Lancton as our keynote speaker for the HADA Installation Luncheon on February 18 at the Houston Country Club. Marty is a native Houstonian whose decades of service on the front lines and in civic leadership have defined his career. A decorated firefighter and paramedic, Marty has served with distinction in the Houston Fire Department and in leadership roles, including President of the Houston Professional Fire Fighters Association and Vice President of the Texas State Association of Fire Fighters. He also leads the Houston Professional Fire Fighters Association Charitable Foundation and founded the Red Hot Gala, raising millions to support firefighters, families, and underserved children in our community. Grounded in servant leadership and guided by a deep commitment to public safety and working families, Marty is widely respected for putting people first and delivering results with integrity.

We’d like to acknowledge that our originally scheduled speaker, Senator Bernie Moreno, is unfortunately unable to travel to the event once again. We apologize for this change, and appreciate your understanding.

At the same time, we’re genuinely excited for Marty to join us. His leadership experience, passion for community, and commitment to service make him a terrific addition to our luncheon, and we know his remarks will resonate with our members and guests.

Please join us for this special luncheon to welcome Marty Lancton and to induct our 2026 Board of Directors.
