'Kind And Humble' Pasco Leader Robert Langford Preserves History

PASCO COUNTY, FL — Without community leaders, New Port Richey wouldn’t hum along nearly as smoothly as it does. We’d miss their contributions in big and small ways.

Patch has partnered with T-Mobile to recognize these often unsung community leaders and celebrate their contributions.

This submission comes from Ann James, a West Pasco Historical Society reader who nominated Robert Langford.
