VULCAN
Continued from page 1A
but admitted the site will
eventually include a quar-
ry.
Friends of Dry Comal
Creek, an organization
opposed to Vulcan’s lime-
stone facility, hosted the
gathering last month in
Bulverde that was attend-
ed by more than 150 area
residents.
The meeting included
a 2½-hour presentation
that addressed adverse
impacts the plant would
have on nearby air and
water quality and proper-
ty values.
“This quarry is vast and
it is big,” Sabrina Hous-
er-Amaya said during the
gathering. “You can see
the impact it will have
from two miles, four
miles and five miles away.
About 6,000 residents will
be within five miles of this
quarry — which (TCEQ)
will only monitor from its
fence line.”
Vulcan says the pro-
posed facility will be
“uniquely designed to fit
within the existing land-
scape and topography.
It will include more
than 600 acres of buffer
zones, setbacks and nat-
ural landscape, meaning
40 percent of the property
will not be mined.”
The company says it
plans mine only about
50 acres — or approxi-
mately 3 percent of the
1,500 acres — in the first
10 years. Vulcan said
the quarry is projected
to “create up to 20 direct

O OPINION VIEWS FROM INSIDE AND OUTSIDE THE H-Z

Kudos ...
We say thank you to those making a
difference in and around New Braunfels
We think we would be remiss if we didn’t begin our
weekly kudos with applause to everyone who attended
Wednesday’s South Castell Avenue master plan meet-
ing in city hall.
The council chambers were packed to the rafters as
at least a couple hundred people listened to the pre-
sentation, which featured three new options for the
10-acre parcel of land just east of the Plaza.
An informed group is a good group, and we salute
everyone who took the time to attend and learn about
the new potential options for the site. We also applaud
all those who showed up early and went on one of the
two tours that highlighted what could go where when
all is said and done.
But, we also want to give kudos to the city and to
Douglas Architects. Our city’s braintrust is mov-
ing forward on this project, but is making sure the
thoughts, concerns and ideas of New Braunfelsers are
being heard.
Public comment has been a part of this project from
the start, and surveys were distributed and then gath-
ered to gain even more input on what citizens think. LETTERS POLICY SUBMIT LETTERS

V VOICES
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Tax reform helps
people, business
Representative Vicente
Gonzalez should support
tax reform and tax cuts for
the American people.
The GOP has released
its Tax Cuts and Jobs Act
— the first reform of the
nation’s tax code in 31
years — which provides in-
dividual and corporate tax
relief, removes cronyism,
enables full expensing, and
removes double taxation
on profits made abroad.
The Tax Cuts and Jobs
Act delivers many benefits
to individuals and families,
including:
• A tax cut enabling fam-
ilies at all walks of life to
keep more of their hard-
earned income
• Doubles the standard
deduction (protecting the
first $24,000 for married
couples)
• Provides support for
child care, higher educa-
tion, family care, etc.
• Makes tax filing much
simpler.
For businesses it:
• Lowers tax rates so
owners can focus on hiring
workers, increasing pay-
checks, etc.
• Makes it easier to start
up small businesses
• Simplifies tax code so
owners can work on grow-
ing their businesses
• Allows for full, immedi-
ate deduction of new equip-
ment and start-up costs.
The reforms continue the
popular retirement savings
options that Americans
have today — including
401(k)s and Individual
Retirement Accounts, or
IRAs.
It also preserves lower
rates on capital gains, divi-
dends, and interest income
so Americans can invest
more in their local econ-
omies and build toward a
more financially secure fu-
ture.
Yvonne Hunziker
New Braunfels
Healthcare an
important issue
Why is healthcare im-
portant to me?
I’m a woman: we’d have
to pay extra for birth con-
trol, and finding a safe
place to get an abortion is
hard, and getting harder.
We must have control
over our own bodies: not
our bosses, not our com-
munities; us. Our bodies,
our choice.
I’m retired. I live on a re-
tired teacher salary, $2,910
a month. I don’t have a lot
of spending money.
I live in the “great” state
of Texas, where our rep-
resentatives messed with
our healthcare retirement
package and I’m looking at
a raise in costs that I didn’t
expect when I retired. I
mean, who would think
they’d make retired people
pay more on fixed incomes?
I have friends and family
who belong to the LGBTQ
community and they might
get hurt or sick and go to a
doctor or hospital that can
legally refuse them. Or sin-
gle mothers, like me, could
be refused care because of
religious refusal.
Sorry, but that is not what
Jesus would do.
I have preexisting condi-
tions: Four of them. And
out of my five rheumatoid
arthritis meds, the Enbrel
shot costs over $1,200 per
shot.
If my Texas teacher in-
surance gets too costly, will
I be accepted to Trump-
care? With four preexisting
conditions?
And did the Congress
stop to think that most of us
retired people have at least
one pre-existing condition?
So, yeah. Healthcare is an
important issue.
Do some real research
and find the truth behind
what this plan will really
do to you and to the people
you love.

God is needed
in all situations
Prayer is the answer.
The editorial from the
Houston Chronicle in the
H-Z’s Nov. 11 edition, and
Jack McKinney’s brief let-
ter to the editor in the Nov.
12 edition, both attest to
America’s declining faith in
the love and power of God.
In the wake of the latest
senseless mass shooting,
HERALD-ZEITUNG.COM | SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 19, 2017 | 5A
state and national lead-
ers called all to join our
“thoughts and prayers” for
our neighbors in Suther-
land Springs in a show of
solidarity, empathy, and
spiritual support.
The Chronicle deemed
those calls to prayer “al-
most blasphemous in their
repetition and meaning-
lessness.”
Really? Since when is it
blasphemous and mean-
ingless to perpetually seek
God’s mercy in comforting
and consoling our fellow
human beings?
Jack McKinney’s letter,
asserting that “this thoughts
and prayers dog just ain’t
hunting,” is also an affront
to the faithful.
The Chronicle, McK-
inney, and all those who
discount the value of these
prayers are totaling missing
the point.
These prayers are for
the victims and those who
grieve the loss of their loved
ones.
I have no doubt that our
neighbors in Sutherland
Springs feel the love that
these prayers represent. I
have no doubt that our
Lord will give them the
comfort and strength they
need to move forward.
As Jesus assured us in
the Sermon on the Mount,
“Blessed are those who
mourn, for they will be
comforted.”
Sadly, America has yet
to turn its collective face to
God, repent its many, many
sins, and earnestly seek His

help in defeating the evils
behind mass killings. Our
nation has not yet earnest-
ly sought God’s help in
addressing the senseless
violence and other ills that
continue to plague us.
All of America, includ-
ing those on both sides
of the gun control issue,
would be better served if
we spent less time arguing
over man-made respons-
es to the manifestations of
evil, and more time on our
knees asking God’s for-
giveness for our sins, in-
cluding forgiveness for our
arrogance in believing that
we don’t need God’s help
to defeat the evil behind
mass shootings.
God has provided us with
the solution — in 2 Chroni-
cles 7:14 — and yet we fool-
ishly refuse to employ it.
“If my people, who are
called by my name, will
humble themselves and
pray and seek my face and
turn from their wicked
ways, then I will hear from
heaven, and I will forgive
their sin and will heal their
land.”
Sadly, America hasn’t yet
given God a reason to fulfill
that promise.
If there is any “blasphe-
my” in this situation, it lies
with the Chronicle’s edi-
torial board and all those
who obstinately believe that
human beings and secular
governments can defeat the
evil in this world without
God.

Victims need our
love and support
The incident in Souther-
land Springs was tragic for
all involved. It was evil un-
leashed.
New Braunfels as a
strong, faithful, blessed
community should do
something public and pow-
erful to support the town
of Southerland Springs.
We can be a light in a dark
world.
I have no specific idea,
aside from a mental im-
age of a group on the plaza
praying and collecting con-
tributions.
I am sure the readers
have some ideas that can
be turned into action to
help the town of Suther-
land Springs. Those victims
along with the Kelly family
need our love and support.

CMSGT James Rob-
ert (Jim or Bob) Brun-
son passed through
death into eternal life
on Nov. 15, 2017, just
a couple of weeks
short of his 96th birth-
day on Dec. 3. He
lived a full life that in-
cluded experiencing
the Great Depression,
Texas farm life, rescue
and recovery service
during WWII, a 29 year
career in the Unit-
ed States Air Force in
communications and
security service, a lov-
ing family, wonderful
friends and travels
around the world.
Jim was born in 1921
in Mineral Wells, Tex-
as, but also lived in
Canyon and Bronte.
He attended Bron-
te High School and
played football, the
French horn in the
band, and performed
in One Act and the Se-
nior plays. He went on
to McMurray College
on a football scholar-
ship but his education
was interrupted by
WWII.
During the war, he
served in the Chi-
na-Burma-India The-
ater and “flew the
hump” with one of the
crews that dropped
supplies and per-
formed rescue mis-
sions over China. Of
the 100 planes in his
squadron involved in
these missions, by the
end of the war, his
was one of only 16 that
survived the treacher-
ous flights of the heavy
cargo aircraft over the
Himalayan Moun-
tains. So many failed
to clear the Hump that
the flight path was
dubbed the “Alumini-
um Highway.”
After WWII, Jim
(Bob) was stationed in
Alaska where he was
also involved in res-
cue missions such as
the infamous “Clob-
bered Turkey” inci-
dent. Here, he began
his duties in commu-
nications which led to
his long-time involve-
ment in amateur ra-
dio and his affiliation
FUNDRAISER
James Robert Brunson
with the Military Aux-
iliary Radio System
(M.A.R.S.). It was in
Alaska that he met and
married Norma Alli-
son Short in 1948.
During his military
career, he and Norma
and their three daugh-
ters, Bobbie, Darlene
and Patti, traveled the
world while stationed
at Air Force Bases in
Arizona, Texas, Puer-
to Rico, Japan and
England. Although
daughter Terry lived
with her mother in
California, she often
visited and spent an
entire year with the
family in Misawa, Ja-
pan.
Sgt. Brunson reveled
in communications
professionally and in
his private pursuits. As
a member of M.A.R.S.,
he relayed messages
overseas before the
advent of comput-
ers, email or texting,
and he participated
in field day training
that equipped him to
help save lives during
crisis. While stationed
in Puerto Rico, he
helped set up a radio
network that allowed
children at Ramey Air
Force Base to speak
with Santa Clause.
One of his proudest
accomplishments was
earning his private pi-
lot’s license. While sta-
tioned in Washington.
D.C., he actually flew
above and along Penn-
sylvania Avenue, a feat
he certainly could not
have accomplished to-
day!
Jim (Bob) retired
from the Air Force
as Chief Master Ser-
geant in 1969, having
been decorated in
war, awarded the Air
Force Commenda-
tion Medal with two
oak leaf clusters and
named Outstanding
Non-commissioned
Officer of the Year at
Chicksands Security
AFB in England.
He and Norma were
married 37 years be-
fore her death in 1985.
In 1988, he married
Wanza Lou Chase,
and at his death, Jim
and Wanza had been
married almost 30
years. They enjoyed
many good years of
travel and family. In
2010, Jim and Wanza
moved from their Rob-
in Lane home in New
Braunfels to McKenna
Village (now Rio Terra)
Independent Living.
When Jim’s health re-
quired greater atten-
tion, he moved into
assisted living there
in Rio Terra where he
received much lov-
ing care from the staff
as well as caregivers
with Hope Hospice.
His family is eternal-
ly grateful for these
“kind, compassionate
angels on earth.” Until
the end, Jim enjoyed
visits with his family,
especially his young
great-grandchildren,
watching football and
golf, and eating pizza,
being in touch with
friends, keeping up
with current events
and listening to good
music. A special vis-
it with his grandson
Darren blessed Jim’s
life just weeks before
his death.
James Brunson is
preceded in death
by his parents Josh-
ua Otis Brunson and
Dora Marie Goodbar,
his brother and sister,
Norman and Darlene,
and by his nephew Bill
Brunson. Also, Betty
Winters, his first wife
and mother of his el-
dest daughter, and
wife Norma Allison
Short. His daugh-
ter Darlene Elizabeth
Brunson also preced-
ed her father in death.
In addition to Wan-
za, his wife of nearly
30 years, he is survived
by three daughters,
Terry P. McLaughlin
and husband Richard
of Mosley, Virginia;
Barbara (Bobbie) J.
Maddox and husband
Marvel of Seguin, Tex-
as; and Patricia Ann
Bulgerin and husband
Randal, also of Seguin.
His grandchildren in-
clude Darren Robert
Bruns and sister Lisa
Bruns, both of Sacra-
mento, California; Mi-
chelle Leigh (Maddox)
Smith and husband
Chris of Austin, Tex-
as; and Jennifer Ann
Bulgerin of Portland,
Oregon. Great grand-
children are Kasey
Green, Sarah Elizabeth
Smith, Samuel James
Smith, Hannah Rose
Maddox Smith and
Miriam Leigh Smith.
In addition, “Uncle
Bob” is survived by
loving nephews Troy
Brunson and wife
Linda; Eric Van De-
Laughter and wife Pat,
Richard DeLaughter,
and Donald DeLaugh-
ter and wife Harriett,
as well as niece Nor-
ma Gene Hessley. He
is also survived by
countless friends.
Those who wish to
honor him with a do-
nation may do so by
making a contribution
to a church or charity
that supports veter-
ans, active military, or
end-of-life care.
A memorial service
will be held at Rio Ter-
ra Senior Living, 2294
E. Common Street,
New Braunfels, Texas
on Thursday, Nov. 30
at 10 a.m. with Hope
Hospice Chaplain Pe-
ter Olsen officiating.
After the memorial
service, the family will
travel to Ft. Sam Hous-
ton for internment
with full military hon-
ors.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

our notorious “lecher in
chief” Lyons says, “A suc-
cessful rake like Bill Clinton
waits for the woman to make
the first move.” In the same
column, Lyons also states,
“Not all sins are crimes, and
it’s important to maintain
the distinction.”
Juanita Broaddrick report-
ed that when she was a vol-
unteer for one of Clinton’s
gubernatorial campaigns he
violently raped her.
Paula Jones reported he
sent a couple of state troop-
ers to invite her to his suite
where he exposed himself
and made lewd suggestions
to her.
Kathleen Willey reported
she met Clinton in the Oval
Office for personal and pro-
fessional advice and that
he groped her, aggressive-
ly rubbed against her and
pushed her hand to his pri-
vates.
Despite Lyons comment,
Clinton clearly made the first
move in all three cases and
had a sick pattern of lewd
behavior.
In addition, these three
women had far more credi-
ble evidence about Clinton’s
crimes than many of the ac-
cusations that have come to
light recently.
However, Clinton crimes
were not subjected to the
swift and pitiless justice that
today’s accused men have ex-
perienced.
Rather, he was rescued
from his crimes by several
forces: dissembling writers
such as Lyons, the Democrat
Party and militant feminism,
one of the party’s main aux-
iliaries.

GOP tax plan
has holes in it
Recently, Congress passed
a budget that makes $4 tril-
lion in cuts to programs,
many of which boost our
families. In fact, one-quarter
of the cuts were to health-
care programs.
It also paved the way for
$1.5 trillion in tax cuts to
millionaires, billionaires,
and wealthy corporations
paid for by cuts to our
health care, nutrition, and
education over the next 10
years.
Senators should not slash
funding for programs like
Medicaid and Medicare
in order to pay for tax cuts
for the mega-rich and Wall
Street.
The Republican tax plan
will also raise taxes for mil-
lions of low- and middle-in-
come families.
Republicans are work-
ing behind closed doors in
a partisan way to create a
tax plan that hurts working
families in all 50 states.
It contains across-the-
board tax cuts for the
wealthy:
1) lowering the top indi-
vidual tax rate,
2) repealing the estate tax,
which helps only 5,200 of
America’s wealthiest fami-
lies,
and 3) lowering the rate
on pass-through entities.
It socks it to middle-class
Americans: Notably, a re-
cent study from the nonpar-
tisan Urban-Brookings Tax
Policy Centershows that the
Trump and Republican tax
plan would greatly benefit
the top 1 percent of Amer-
icans while offering only
modest tax relief to the rest
of American households;
And it would lead to cuts

care and Medicaid, in addi-

tion to the proposed cuts in
the Republican budget.
Based on what we know
now, the Republican tax
plan would blow at least a
$1.5 trillion hole in the defi-
cit. This would likely allow
Republicans to follow the
same “starve the beast” play-
book where they pass huge
tax breaks claiming they’ll
pay for themselves and then
use the resulting huge defi-
cits to justify deep cuts to
health care, nutrition and
education programs vital to
working families.

Dance floor is
kids’ playground
I read your editorial in the
November 15, 2017, edition
of the NB Herald-Zeitung
and accept your invitation to
discuss the editorial.
I agree that the Wurstfest
provides wonderful opportu-
nities for the many nonprof-
its to raise money for their
various causes. Not only do
they make money, they pro-
vide a service to the Wurst-
fest attendees by having a
good variety of food available
at a fairly reasonable cost.
There is a large variety of
entertainment. Some good
and some make me wonder
what the attraction is and
why are they here.
I refer to your second-
to-last paragraph: “In other
words, Wurstfest is a win-
win for everyone.”
Not so.
Wurstfest has turned what
used to be a dance floor in
the Wurstfest hall into a chil-
dren’s playground. Dancers
have to compete with the
children running across the
floor.
It is dangerous for both the
dancers and for the children.
Dancers are accustomed
to watching out for others
at shoulder level, not at knee
level. Not only do we need
to watch out for the children,
but also the young mommies
sitting in the middle of the
floor.
We and others have
complained many times to
various Opas but nothing
changes.
I do not understand why
Wurstfest allows this. Their
advertisements feature danc-
ing as part of the entertain-
ment.
We received a good-sized
pamphlet featuring the 10-
day schedule plus ads from a
variety of businesses.
On two pages of this pam-
phlet are pictures of two dif-
ferent dancing couples. Also
on the back cover of Taste
of New Braunfels is another
picture of a dancing couple.
At Gate 1, there is a picture
of a dancing couple. Seems
like false advertising.
They hire good bands and
have two dance contests.
Isn’t this an indication danc-
ers are welcome?
During the dance contest is
the only time the children are
kept off the floor. I noticed
this year as soon as the con-
tests are over, all the dancers
disappear because they know
the children will be back. It is
also the only time dance wax
is applied.
My husband is a retired
military veteran and we re-
turned home in 1980. We
have enjoyed coming to
Wurstfest for many years.
However, it is becoming
less enjoyable since the cur-
rent Wurstfest management
is not concerned about the
safety of both the dancers
and the children.
I am also forwarding a
copy of this letter to the Tex-
as Polka News and to the Fox
Valley Polka Review (a news-
letter out of the Midwest).

Very few flaws
belong to Trump
Thank you Gene Lyons
for keeping us updated
on the continued mores
of Hollywood and Wash-
ington, D.C.
I see the only thing that
has changed is the fact
that they are bringing the
points they want to bring
out into the open. They
are not bringing them all,
I am sure.
I think the way the me-
dia has returned the U.S.
to the 1600s and the Sa-
lem witch trials is, well,
different. Just get any
middle-aged female and
let them, just happen, to
remember an incident
some 20, 30 or 40 years
ago and eureka!
There is the evidence.
They said it so it must be
true.
Let me see Congress,
what part of the Consti-
tution does it say that you
have the right to tell Al-
abama or any other state
who their senator should
be?
Oh, I forgot, the Civil
War ended “states rights.”
No, no. the Civil War
was not about that. It was
all about slavery.
You want a dose of the
truth Gene? I doubt that
you do but here it comes.
The election of Don-
ald Trump has exposed
many flaws and very few
of them are his.
He has exposed the fact
that most of the GOP
sides are basically Demo-
crats in sheep’s clothing.
A fact that has me more
upset with the GOP than
the Democrats, and that
is saying a lot.
He has exposed many of
the news media that have
been parading around for
decades as a conservative
that now they show you
they are not.
He has shown that the
corruption in Washing-
ton is even worse than
many of us have expected.
So bad that it has endan-
gered our national secu-
rity.
Most Americans, in my
opinion, know that when
men and women work
together there is a two-
way street that says both
parties have rights and re-
sponsibilities.
These things may hap-
pen in private, but if you
want them stopped you
bring them out into the
public and not 20,30 or 40
years later.
It is interesting how
the Hollywood people all
needed a job or the mon-
ey.
We could say in a few
cases they wanted to en-
rich themselves first and
then they report it.
Would you call that ex-
changing money for sex?
I think so.
Mr. Lyons, why all of a
sudden do you think ev-
eryone is trying to clear
their conscience? They
can afford it now?
Maybe they are trying
to stir up the news and
deflect the spotlight from
Hillary and Bill and their
problems with the “trust
fund.” Could be.
I would suggest to any-
one who is really interest-
ed in finding out the truth
about all the graft and
corruption of the Obama
tenure in office listen to
any interview of James
Kallstrom, former assis-
tant director of the FBI on
any article, radio or TV
interview. You will get a
completely different take.

“That includes anyone
selling food, drink or sou-
venirs on the grounds,”
Herbelin said.
“We were confident the
numbers would be up,”
she said. “We were con-
fident attendance would
meet or exceed previous
years.”
The 2017 attendance
number is a record, Her-
belin said.
“We’re always think-
ing what we can do to
make the festival better,”
Krueger said. “We want it
to grow, but grow slowly.
We look at it like a mighty
oak tree. It’s beautiful,
but its growth is slow and
steady.”
Herbelin said the con-
tinued growth can be at-
tributed, at least in part,
to the estimate that about
half of the attendees are
“repeats,” or those who
have attended previous
festivals.
“That keeps us grow-
ing,” she said. “They like
it, they tell their family and
friends, and they come,
too.”
“If people are having
a good time, that’s all
we want,” Krueger said.
“Word of mouth is our
best advertising.”
The 155,762 folks who
visited the Wurstfest
grounds over the 10 days
from Nov. 3-12 did not
include the numbers from
the two free admission pe-
riods, children and those
who had passes, informa-
tion states.
“We’re open for about 90
hours during the 10 days,”
Herbelin said. “And we
have pretty good crowds.”

Christmas with Charlie

(Simon & Schuster Audio)

By Alec Woolsey
Herald-Zeitung
While Thanksgiving is still
a few days away, the world is
already preparing for the ap-
proaching December. Several
young actors in the area are pre-
paring for their performance of
“A Charlie Brown Christmas.”
The musical, which will be put
on by the New Braunfels Per-
forming Arts group, follows the
tale of Charlie Brown and his
unique Christmas story.
Sherry Bettersworth, who is
both the artistic director and di-
rector of the show, said it’s a clas-
sic story being retold on the local
stage.
“Well, it’s based on the Charlie

Brown Christmas story that we
read as kids and that we watched
on TV,” she said.
Many of the actors participat-
ing are from New Braunfels, ac-
cording to Bettersworth.
“This show will be done at the
McKenna Events Center,” she
said. “We wanted to make it close
to home for the children’s muse-
um and all the kids that come to
the children’s museum. We’re fea-
turing a lot of our talented children
that live here in New Braunfels and
the surrounding areas.”
The musical, which is famous-
ly a TV special featuring Charlie
Brown and several other Pea-
nuts characters and the tale of
a unique Christmas tree, will be
put on in the mornings as well
as the evenings so that students
can attend the shows at the mu-
seum.
“I think we have a few stu-
dents, that, if I am correct, that
may come in from Schertz as well
as Seguin and will be doing some
caroling before the show,” Bet-
tersworth said. “We are going to
have a lot of our characters out
there. We are going to have Anna
and Elsa and we are going to
have the Grinch and Frosty the
Snowman. [We’ll] have a meet
and greet for the kids when they
come in.
“We’re also doing a pancake
[dinner] before some of our
shows with the character meet
and greet as well.”
This is not the first time the the-
ater group has put on the show.
“We don’t do it every year,”
Bettersworth said. “We try to do
something at Christmas that’s
really great for the kids to come
to, so we felt like… we did it a
few years ago, actually and we
felt like it was a great show for
the kids. [It] was a great oppor-
tunity because the show features
a lot of young actors in the show.
We wanted to do something that
would give the children a chance
to be in the show and have a lead
part. And so that’s why we chose
Charlie Brown.”
The performance will be held
at the McKenna Children’s Mu-
seum in New Braunfels on Dec. 1
and 2. More information is avail-

Thankfulness is human nature

MIKE FITSKO
Columnist Mike Fitsko is
a retired educator, freelance
writer and motivational speaker.
A large extended fami-
ly in Wisconsin gathered
around their abundantly
filled dining room table
preparing to devour the
Thanksgiving feast set in
front of them.
Moments before they
began to dig in, the host
father suggested they each
go around the table and
quickly tell one another
something for which they
are thankful that may
have been life changing.
The first to speak was
the teenage son who was
also the hungriest. He said
he was so thankful for Mrs.
Trotter, his 11th grade En-
glish teacher, who spent
time and tutored him af-
ter school. “Without her
help, I surely would have
failed”, he said.
Then the host’s mother
recalled how a very caring
nurse held her hand while
encouraging her when she
was in the hospital with
a life-changing debilitat-
ing illness. Other family
members followed with
their special acknowledg-
ments of gratitude.
The last person to speak
was the family’s elderly
grandfather whose health
was rapidly deteriorat-
ing and for the past two
years had been confined
to a wheelchair which had
left him silent most of the
time and melancholy all of
the time.
Not knowing exactly
what to expect from the
sad old man, everyone at
the table was surprised
when he quickly perked
up, raised his head high
and began to speak.
“Me, I’m so thankful
I’m here with you all to-
day and I can tell you it’s
because of an old church
they call Salisbury Cathe-
dral.”
Surprising everyone
there, the grandfather
then went on to tell how
during World War II he
was a bomber pilot. One
night on a dangerous
mission over Normandy,
France his plane came

Veterans Day celebrated across Comal ISD

From Staff Reports
Juan Rodriguez summed
up Veterans Day ceremo-
nies held at Comal ISD
campuses throughout the
district best.
“I’m very grateful to be
able to thank those vet-
erans who served before
me and to meet some of
the young people who will
be serving our country in
the future,” said Rodri-
guez, a retired Army Ma-
jor who had two tours in
Iraq during his 20 years
in active military. “What
this school district and, the
kids and the faculty do for
us each year on Veterans
Day makes me proud.”
Canyon High School
Junior ROTC student Ja-
mie Marte said it’s very
important to show respect
to those who served our
country.
“Veterans Day is im-
portant because not only
did my father serve in the
military but several oth-
er family members did as
well,” Marte said. “All of
our veterans made so many
sacrifices and for that we
forever owe them a debt
of gratitude. It makes me
proud to be an American
knowing there are brave
people like this around me
willing to go out and do
whatever it takes to keep
us safe. I can’t wait to join
the army so I can serve my
country just like they did.”
Canyon Lake High Junior
ROTC member Brayden
Hight said he also plans on
joining the military.
“When I get to thank a
veteran I get such a feeling
of gratitude,” said Hight. “I
hope one day I can repay
them for all the sacrific-
es they have made. That’s
why I want to serve my
country.”

PTA raises these funds to pay
for field trips, class parties
and campus wish-list items.

Today’s Horoscope
Keep an open mind when dealing with co-workers or
figures from your past. The ideas shared will be interest-
ing and will help you formulate what you want to invest
your time, effort and money in this year. A personal change
will improve your life.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Personal relationships
and domestic matters will improve if you make a couple of
alterations to your way of life. Make comfort and conve-
nience priorities, as well as romance and family fun.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Listen to the voice
of reason. Someone will play with your emotions or feed
you false information. Ask questions and make intelligent
choices to avoid a personal loss.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Listen carefully.
Someone will intentionally mislead you to get you to donate
or lend money or possessions. Offer advice, but don’t take
on someone else’s problem.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Changes to the way you
earn your living or income will encourage you to make per-
sonal changes, but don’t spend more than you can afford.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- You’ll face high demands
from friends and family. Ride out the storm by remaining
neutral and noncommittal until you have a better under-
standing of what’s expected of you.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- New beginnings and lots
of opportunities are heading your way. Embrace the future
with enthusiasm and a willingness to be positive, and good
things will unfold. Do what works best for you.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Money matters will not be
as they appear. Don’t overspend on something or sign a
contract that will put you in debt. Keep your life simple and
moderate, and focus on self-improvements.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- A problem with a partner-
ship will develop if you are vague about what’s going on in
your life or how you feel about the relationship. Don’t lead
anyone on.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Refuse to let a work-related
problem fester. Occupy your time with things and people
you enjoy. Taking a trip, attending a gathering or recon-
necting with an old friend is favored.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Getting together with friends,
peers or people heading down a similar path as you will
bring positive results. Attend a retreat or make personal
changes that will enhance your life.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- It will be difficult to deal with
an issue concerning your home. Don’t believe everything
you hear. Legwork and pertinent questions will help you
find answers and make a decision.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Taking a short trip, holding
talks with intimate friends or relatives and looking inward
and rediscovering old dreams will lead to positive change
and peace of mind.

Tomorrow’s Horoscope
Take pride in how you look, where you live and what
you do. Self-awareness will bring you closer to your
ultimate goal. Put pressure on those who don’t pull their
weight or neglect to give back. Take the role of peace-
maker as well as the judiciary, when need be.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Think about what you have
to offer, and find ways to use your skills and talents in ways
that you’ve never done before. Your actions will not be
forgotten.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- It’s up to you to bring
about positive change. Good things will happen if you are
forthright about your motives and ready to negotiate or
offer incentives.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Take the high road and
use intelligence to maneuver your way through situations.
If you are too aggressive or inconsistent, you will be met
with a response that is equally unpredictable.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Take better care of your
health by monitoring your eating and drinking habits close-
ly. Offer to help someone you’d like to get to know better. A
professional change looks promising.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Take one step at a time.
Protect your assets and take care of your liabilities. Refuse
to let anyone outsmart or outmaneuver you. Listen carefully
and respond mindfully.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Get involved, travel, study
and sign up for events. You’ll be at the top of your game,
and you should be intent on bringing about positive
change. Raise your standards.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Don’t feel you must follow
the crowd. Watch to see what happens before you give
in to something you are only partially interested in doing.
Focus on greater personal awareness.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Your emotions will be diffi-
cult to control. Don’t lead anyone on or make promises you
won’t want to keep. Speak from the heart instead of saying
what you think others want to hear.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Accept change and you’ll
be able to move forward. Holding on to the past or doing
your job using outdated methods will not help the people
dependent on you and your progress.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- If something isn’t working for
you, make a change. Don’t put up with situations that are
injurious to your emotional, physical or financial health.
You’ll gain support if you make the right choice.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Compassion and under-
standing will be required when dealing with domestic
situations. Cooperation will bring you closer to a solution
involving children or elders. Physical improvement is
encouraged.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- If you learn as much as you
can, it will result in positive change, a new direction or a
higher standard of living. Listen to experts, and share infor-

under attack and was badly
damaged. Not only that, his
navigator had been killed. All
of the airplane’s instruments
except the compass had also
been rendered unusable.
As the plane limped back
across the English Channel to-
ward England’s coast, the then
young pilot quickly realized
that he was lost in the dense
clouds and had no idea exact-
ly where he was or even his
altitude. For a time, it seemed
most likely he would simply
crash and burn.
“Then, what d’ you know?”,
the grandfather said smiling.
“There was a large opening
in the clouds and a patch of
moon-light shining through it
right there in the middle of the
sky.”
“That’s when I saw it,” he
continued. “I saw the towering
spire of that old Gothic cathe-
dral I’d seen so many times
piloting over England and I
knew exactly where I was.”
Then with a joyous smile
on his face that his family had
not seen in a very long time, he
added, “I reckon it saved my life
and that’s why I’m here today.”
Thanksgiving is just days
away. As I’ve so often said,
this uniquely American cele-
bration was conceived in the
hearts and minds of our fore-
fathers who despite their hard-
ships and their times of despair
believed gratitude – thankful-
ness – was one of the highest
forms of human expression.
I hope you express yours
this coming Thursday.
Happy Thanksgiving.
