The media selection committee of the Saints Hall of Fame has selected Hokie Gajan as its Joe Gemelli Fleur de Lis award honoree for his vast contributions to the New Orleans Saints organization.
The committee made its selection in March, more than a month prior to Gajan's passing on Monday after a brief battle with a rare form of cancer. Though the official announcement of the 2016 honorees for the Saints Hall of Fame will take place on May 17, Saints Hall of Fame management deemed it appropriate to announce Gajan's selection in the wake of his passing.
