It’s Monday November 11th. 

And it’s Veterans Day! And Boerne takes care of our Vets.  Captain Mark Tyler Voss American Legion Post 313 in partnership with Private Bruno Phillip Veterans of Foreign War Post 688 will be in full uniform in Veterans Plaza on Main Street with their 11:00 Ceremony.  

Compadres Hill Country Cocina continues their tradition, if you’re a Veteran, your lunch is on them.  Other Boerne Restaurants with similar offers include our Chili’s, Denny’s, Subway, and Wendy’s.

In one week there were two accidents - and 3 fatalities off I-10. Just two days after the death of two brothers on the access road, a 42 year old woman rolled her car off of I-10 near Boerne Stage Road at 5:30 in the morning. Unfortunately, the woman lost control of her car and hit a barrier, causing her car to flip and ejecting her from the vehicle. The identity of the woman has not been released. 

As today is Veterans Day nationally, The City of Boerne is celebrating Arbor Day tomorrow by planting 150 native trees donated by the APA Corporation. Because of the Texas sun, November is the ideal time to plant trees in order to ensure their success. City staff and volunteers from Burkett Arbor Care, the Rotary Club, and more will be planting the trees along the Cibolo and Fredricks Creeks, at the cemetery and behind the library. On top of all that, the City will be donating 65 trees to residents who want to contribute to the initiative. The trees will be available for pick-up from 11 a.m. – 2 p.m. at City Hall, and include varieties like Bald Cypress, Easter Cottonwood and Pecan.  

And it’s Bulky Item and Brush collection week, so if you have items that do not fit in your trashcan, such as an old mattress or furniture, the city will come and collect them. Pick-up will take place on your normal trash day, with items expected at the curb by 7 am.

Boerne Radio - News - November 11, 2024

It’s Wednesday November 13th. 

In 1955, Rosa Parks refused to move from her seat at the front of a bus in protest of segregation. This was the beginning of the Montgomery bus boycott, which lasted 13 months.  Almost a year later, on this date in 1956, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that segregation on interstate buses is unconstitutional. 

In the heartbreaking murder case of Suzanne Simpson, the affidavit is now in the public record and the details involving Brad Simpson’s presence in Kendall County are available.  The arrest warrant affidavit states that around 7:53 a.m. on Oct. 7, Brad Simpson dropped off his child at school and the bed of his truck contained at least two white trash bags and a large ice chest.

At around 9:15 a.m. on Oct. 7, Brad Simpson went to the Whataburger in Boerne, and the bed of his truck contained an additional trash bag, a large heavy-duty trash can, and a large, bulky item wrapped and secured in a blue tarp.Brad Simpson then went into the Home Depot on 46 at around 9:53 a.m., where video surveillance and a receipt showed he purchased two bags of cement, a construction bucket with a lid, a box of 32-ounce heavy-duty trash bags, one bottle of Clorox disinfectant spray and insect repellent.

According to KSAT.com, while in the parking lot of the Home Depot, he asked a man about the directions to the nearest dump in Boerne. After leaving the store, Brad Simpson intentionally placed his phone in “lock down” mode after he spoke with the man in the parking lot.

Over the next hour or so, Brad Simpson’s truck was seen leaving the waste site in Boerne. He then headed to a gas station in Boerne and bought two one-gallon jugs of water.  Surveillance footage showed the trash bags were no longer in the bed of the truck, but he still had the blue tarp, firewood rack and trash can at 11:15 a.m. He had also changed his shoes from sandals to cowboy boots. After he left the gas station, he headed westbound from Boerne on 46 to Bandera County.

At around 1:41 p.m., a license plate reader captured Brad Simpson’s truck heading back to Kendall County. At that time, the blue tarp was no longer visible in the bed of his truck, and the firewood rack had been repositioned.

Brad Simpson remains behind bars on bonds totaling $5 million and a federal detainer.

Seven years after Kendall County was organized, the first county courthouse was completed in 1870. Local Surveyor John James donated the land.  The courthouse was a small one-story structure that housed the first county jail on the northeast corner. The structure we see today includes the addition of a second story to the original courthouse, which operated for 128 years. This Kendall County building is the second oldest Texas courthouse in continuous use.

Boerne Texas History - 127 - Kendall County Courthouse

The Roeder memorial park was built to honor two Boerne-area men who died in service. In 1945, C.T. and Eva Roberts deeded the four lots in the Cibolo Park Addition to the City of Boerne. Their twin sons Aaron and Allen were killed in World War II combat. They graduated from Boerne High School in 1944 and joined the Navy, where they were assigned to the USS Bismarck Sea. On the evening of Feb. 21, 1945, the Bismarck Sea had just recovered her aircraft from a strike when a swarm of Japanese planes appeared, with one crashing into the battleship. Allen went back to look for Aaron before abandoning the ship. They perished as the USS Bismarck Sea sank to the bottom of the Pacific Ocean in less than 90 minutes.
