Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott was welcomed to Nacogdoches Monday evening by about 200 supporters at the 2010 Vision America "Guardian of the Family" Gala.

Abbott, a Republican, was the recipient of the "Texas Guardian of the Family Award" and the keynote speaker at the event, held in the Baker Pattillo Student Center on the campus of Stephen F. Austin State University.
