Local VFDs need our support
Local VFDs need our support
Most of us have heard – and probably seen – the sirens of the trucks from the Boerne Fire Department as they leave their station on Main Street. BFD is a “hybrid” service, meaning its paid staff/operations are supplemented by the Boerne Volunteer Fire Department, with 15 volunteers currently (per its 2021 annual report). 06/17/2022 12:00 AM

Reflecting on the past, present and future
Reflecting on the past, present and future
As I passed my tassel from right to left with the Boerne High School Class of 2022, I felt the breath of the past four years shared with my classmates brush through us with the slight evening wind. It was then that our adolescence ended as quickly as it had brought itself on. Fearfully, I recalled the many who had told me that high school would be the best years of my life, and with hope, I realized they wouldn’t be. 06/14/2022 12:00 AM
Honoring parents in spite of flaws
Honoring parents in spite of flaws
Q: I grew up in a very dysfunctional home. My parents hurt me in many ways. But now they’re aging and losing the ability to look after themselves. Given the past, I’m not sure how I feel about caring for them. What’s my obligation here? 06/14/2022 12:00 AM
