Marion City Council finally meets, still can’t handle city’s business
Darren Dunn
(Marion) -- The Marion City Council last week did something that it hasn’t done in months. It actually held an official council meeting. After months of infighting and resignations, the council came together for one night to try to adopt a budget and tax rate for its new fiscal year, which begins on October 1. Despite the efforts to bring the council together during the special meeting, it should probably come as no suprise that the meeting did not go well, and the citizens of Marion were again left with questions about the city’s future.
Marion Mayor Danny Loyola was joined by Aledermen Abigaile Mayberry, DeShon Blyden and Darrell Grimley for last Monday’s meeting. The council hasn’t held a meeting since February, because it didn’t have enough members to make a quorum. That was partly due to the fact that there were resignations during that time, but it was also due to the fact that the city actually missed a deadline earlier this year which would have allowed it to conduct its regular city council elections in May.

La Vernia man arrested for allegedly making threats
(La Vernia) -- A La Vernia man is behind bars after allegedly threatening to commit an act of mass violence in neighoring Wilson County. The threats were made during calls to two different Comal County hotlines on Sept. 8. The calls were believed to be made by a male caller from a home in Wilson County. Following up on those reports, the Wilson County Sheriff’s Office identified the caller as Jonni Carville, of the 100 block of Circle Six Drive in La Vernia.
Upon arriving at his home, officials say Carville was allegedly uncooperative and “made it clear that he had a disdain for law enforcement” and would “only speak to the deputies on scene

through a window.” Authorities say other family members at the residence reportedly made the situation worse and deputies were unable to take any further action at that time.
Further investigations revealed that Carville had earlier had an
The problems with Marion’s municipal government have now been well documented, but the council was going to try to set all of that aside for now, and host one meeting so that the budget and tax rate could be adopted. Both are key to the city moving forward into its new fiscal year.
Mayor Loyola says he was hopeful that they could, at least, get this done as a temporary measure -- until a new council is elected in November. But he says it didn’t take long from him to realize that they were not going to be able to come together.
“It didn’t go so well for the city. I think off the bat, I pretty much knew in the first couple of minutes that it wasn’t going to get passed just to due to Mr. Blyden’s public comments that he made, so I pretty much knew that it was (not) going to pass. Mr. Grimley did make a motion to pass it, because it was pretty much copying the same budget from last year and then doing it this year. That’s pretty much what I did and the formula added two percent. It was pretty much the same as last year. I’m like, hey, you can tell me because of the fact of this is the same budget as last year. Mr. Grimley even mentioned that as well, that this is the same budget from last year. But they were looking at...having actuals in there. All I did was just say, hey, we didn’t have actuals because we are still working on trying to figure out stuff from (fiscal year) 2022. So, I took (the actual numbers) all out. But let’s not get it twisted, the budget that they had last year -- there wasn’t a lot of actuals in there. In my opinion, regardless of what
interaction with the La Vernia Police Department while at the police station. The next day, it was also reported that he was “hostile” and “uncooperative” while at La Vernia Middle School.
The negative demeanor was allegedly director towards the school officer and school administration.
It’s also been reported that Carville had multiple firearms and had reportedly posted how he didn’t like police or school officials. Upon his arrest, authorities found nearly 100 guns and “tens of thousands of rounds of ammunition” at the home. Carville was charged with making terroristic threats. He remains in the Wilson County Jail in lieu of a $150,000 bond.
that meeting was, man, they were not going to pass it. It could have been the perfect budget for the city, (but) they were not going to pass it. I think it’s just because they don’t like me and what I’m trying to do with (helping the city),” said Loyola.
Loyola says there was an attempt to get the budget passed that night, but there wasn’t enough support to get it approved.
“There was a motion on the table made by Mr. Grimley and...it pretty much died on the table because nobody gave it a second. And then when we went back to see if we were going to pass the budget again or if they were going to deny it, I had to ask each individual – and... two denied it and then one approved,” said Loyola.
The lack of action on the budget, meant the tax rate also could not be approved. That led to even more questions from concerned citizens. Loyola says fortunately, it appears as if the city will not have to shut down completely on October 1.
“One of the residents had asked, ‘OK, so what does that do on October 1...is the city shut down?’ (The city attorney’s) thing was no. (He said) I could still pay the staff. I could still pay bills and stuff like that. So, daily operations for City Hall can still be done. I just have to wait until pretty much a November time frame for the elections and whatever council gets passed. We’ll have that meeting in November and then hopefully by then we have the actual budget and everything will be reconciled from 2020 to 2024. We can actually give them an actual budget,” said Loyola.

Marion, continued.
The question about how the city could move forward and expend city funds, that had not been approved in a budget, was a major concern going into last week’s meeting. Mayor Loyola says ideally, they would have adopted the budget and tax rate. But because that didn’t happen, he now will rely on the advice of the city’s legal advisor.
“I looked over to the city attorney and I said ‘let me get this straight, I can still pay the staff and I can still pay bills?’ And he says yes. I said ok, I can do that and then in November we’ll go ahead and finish it, pass it, then ratify it and just see if we need to amend anything when it comes to all that,” said Loyola.
One of the key sticking points last Monday were questions about spending in the current budget. The actual expendittures weren’t included in the budget. Loyola says that’s because those numbers are still being crunched. But he says he hopes to have all of that information for the new council.
“I’m pretty sure we will have those numbers for that council in November to look at and we’ll have actuals and just to see where that money went. (That’s) what everybody’s been talking about -- where the money went it. So, we’re doing some very deep dives going into that account to the point that I’m memorizing bank accounts left and right, memorizing all kinds of stuff just because I’m looking at those bank accounts,” said Loyola.
Loyola, who was new to municipal government when he was elected to office last November, says he accepts some responsibility for how things have gone since that time. But he says the challenges for the city of Marion pre-date election. He says things have only gotten worse this year, because of the continued in-fighting, which includes resignations on the council and at Marion City Hall, spats on social media and on the city’s official website, and the fact that the council went seven months without holding one single council meeting.
Loyola says that he was disapponted that they couldn’t, at least, come together on the budget, but he says he wasn’t surprised. He says his short time in office has
largely seen personality conflicts completely overshadow the city’s ability to operate. Loyola has admitted publicly that everyone involved, including himself, needed to “grow up” and do what’s best for the people of Marion. But after last week’s meeting, that remains a challenge for the city.
“Pretty much from the moment that I won the election, I think that’s where it was. That’s where it was already started, because I’ve heard things about people could have fixed things, but they didn’t want to fix it because they didn’t want it to hand it to me perfectly. So, they just let it sit there and (said) he can figure it out. But it’s like you’re not doing any service to the citizens (by doing that). That’s who suffers at the moment, right? Is it the people,” said Loyola.
While the news last week was disappointing, Loyola says he thinks Marion will be on a better path after the November election. He says it will be a reset opportunity for the city, and a time to start to get some things done for the people of Marion.
“We’re going to probably do something that this previous council couldn’t do and that’s figure out the numbers, and figure out the budget. I’m just excited for November. I really am. I get a second opportunity to do this and you know, I got to take an opportunity to kind of just go through this, and we’re going to fix it. That’s one of the things I’m going to guarantee you that we are going to fix it. I’m going to say we’re doing this and the previous council couldn’t do that. So, that’s going to be our (goal). The people that I’ve talked to -- a couple of people that have applied (for council)...that’s the thing we’re talking about is just trying to fix it. You know, start from the bottom and fix it and fix a lot of things that need to be fixed,” said Loyola.
All five seats on the Marion City Council will appear on the city’s November 5 ballot. There are nine candidates vying for one of the five alderman positions. The candidates that will appear on the ballot include Jena Rodriguez, Stanley Stevens, Phil Karrer, Karen Mills, Jorge Olea, Jeremiah Burns, Kerry Gutierrez, Carl Martin and Jerry Penshorn.
Seguin boys force play-in game; Marion
Matadors take district opener at homecoming
Chris Austin
(Seguin) -- Junior linebacker Damian Garcia came up with an interception in the endzone late in the fourth quarter and the Seguin Matadors would run out the clock on Victoria East to take home a 3730 win on homecoming in the District 13-5A opener for both teams on Friday night at Matador Stadium.
The teams traded scores in the first half. Seguin got on the board with a 41-yard wide receiver screen pass from quarterback Corey Dailey to wide receiver Nik Henry to go out in front, 6-0. Dailey would find Cameron Juarez-Bruns from 15 yards out for a score in the second quarter to give Seguin a 13-9 lead. Victoria East quarterback Kason Kolle would score on a two-yard run with just under a minute to play in the half as the Titans took a 16-13 lead into the locker-room.
In the third quarter, Matador running back Ian Moreno scored on a 12 yard TD run to cap the first drive of the second half. After a Titan touchdown later in the quarter, Moreno would score on a one-yard run with about 10 minutes left to go in the fourth quarter. Three minutes later, after Victoria East turned the ball over on a bad snap on a punt attempt, kicker Gabe Hernandez drilled a 24-yard field goal to put Seguin up 30-23. But on the ensuing kickoff, Titan return man Caleb Jefferson ran the ball back 75 yards to tie the score.
With just under five minutes to go in the fourth of a 30-30 game, Seguin quarterback Corey Dailey avoided a Titan rush and found his receiver Nik Henry in the right flat. Surrounded by Victoria East defenders, the Matador senior track star wide-out was somehow able to zigzag around the defense and take the ball over the goal line from 34
yards out to put the Matadors in front setting up Garcia’s interception to ice the game on Victoria East’s next possession.
Henry finished the night with eight receptions for 148 yards and two touchdowns. Dailey was 20 of 29 for 266 yards and three touchdowns. Moreno ran for 149 yards on 24 carries with two scores.
For the Matador defense, Jared Rogers had four tackles including two for loss. The senior lineman also had a strip sack and blocked a field goal. Dylan Eisen-Sepeda had three quarterback pressures and forced a fumble. And Marcus Troy had seven tackles.
Following the game, Seguin head coach Craig Dailey said his team accomplished their goal of getting that first district victory.
“We’re 1-0 in district. That was the number one goal tonight,” Dailey said. “If (you win by) 30 points or one point, it doesn’t really matter. You just try to be 1-0 every week in this gauntlet of a district and hopefully you’re playing in November. You want to be playing your best ball in November and December. So, we still have a lot of work to do.”
In other district games on Friday night, New Braunfels crushed San Antonio MacArthur 62-0 in New Braunfels and Smithson Valley won at home taking down Boerne Champion, 42-10. On Thursday, Pieper beat Wagner, 35-21 in Converse.
The Matadors will head to the Hill Country next week to play Boerne Champion. The Chargers and Matadors will kick off at 7 p.m. next Friday in Boerne and you’ll hear the game on KWED and streaming at SeguinToday.com.

Helen Marie Tiemann Kolb was born in November of 1931 to her loving parents William Edward Tiemann and Helen Marie Willmann Tiemann on their family farm three miles east of downtown Seguin, Texas. She passed away on September 13, 2024 in New Braunfels, Texas at the age of 92. She will be truly missed by those she loved but left behind a lifetime of happy memories. As a child, Helen attended Tiemann School, a small one-room school that Theodore Tiemann, her grandfather, started and donated the land for. She would walk to the school from their family farmhouse. Her father farmed the family land around the farmhouse and school. As a young girl, Helen witnessed the beginning of World War II as the skies above their farm filled with trainer aircraft circling the Tiemann farm after the Army Air Corps built a runway less than a mile from their farmhouse – now Randolph Auxiliary Field. She had two older brothers, Rev. Dr. William Harold Tiemann who became a Presbyterian Minister and Dr. Kenneth Edward Tiemann, an accomplished pharmacist. By example, her parents instilled traditional hard-working principles and taught them love of God and love of neighbor.
A talented soprano, Helen grew up singing at every opportunity, serving God with her voice for decades at St. James Catholic Church in Seguin. While attending Texas Lutheran College, and singing professionally part-time, Helen sang at an event on Randolph Air Force Base, where she met and soon thereafter married her husband of forty-nine years, Maj. Maynard Kolb. They had three children and served a full Air Force career living in Kansas, Oklahoma, Tennessee, and California before returning to Seguin. During that career, Helen and her children were blessed to spend quality time with her family at the Tiemann farm in Seguin while her husband was deployed in the Korean War and the Vietnam War. After her husband’s retirement from the Air Force, the family returned home and Helen became actively involved in the Guadalupe County community.
Over the years, Helen proudly wore many hats – she had many hobbies and constantly volunteered her time to local organizations. To name a few, she was a realtor, law office assistant to her son - Judge Kevin Kolb, a Guadalupe County Master Gardner, a Seguin Chamber of Commerce Ambassador, member of the Guadalupe County Republican Women, member of the Conservation Society, member of the Delphians Study Club, Daughter of the Republic of Texas, vocalist, and active volunteer in many roles at St. James Catholic Church. She will be most fondly remembered though for the things that brought her the most joy in life – being a loving mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother.
As an amateur genealogist, she proudly kept great records of her family tree
Charles (Chuck) David Teal, 76 years, of McQueeney Texas, passed away at his home on September 16, 2024. He was born on November 14, 1947, in Wichita, TX to the late Claude Durwood and Janet Leah (Wasson) Teal.
He married the love of his life, Vickie Teal. He served and was a proud Vietnam Army Veteran. He loved being a nurse for over 31 years and made many lifelong friends throughout those years! He also loved to fish but he didn’t like to eat the fish.
He was preceded in death by his parents, wife Vickie Teal, one brother
and Texas-German heritage. She loved to share stories passed down through generations about the struggles and the early years of German settlers to our area. Her direct ancestors included some of the first settlers of both Seguin and New Braunfels, as well as important community leaders such as her greatgreat grandfather, Tobias Meiniger – an early Texan-German architect and entrepreneur who designed various Seguin landmark buildings, including the historic landmark Sebastapool, and co-owned a stagecoach company that transported settlers from the port of Indianolia to Seguin, New Braunfels, and Fredericksburg.
Helen was a devout Roman Catholic and served St. James Church in any way she could – she was the first person to deliver Holy Communion away from Mass to patients at Guadalupe Valley Hospital and loved doing so weekly for many years. She also was a vocalist and song leader and is remembered by many for her beautiful solos of songs like her rendition of Ave Maria, which she sang for many years at Christmas Midnight Mass.
Her family will most fondly remember her for the joy, love, care, and support she gave them throughout the years. Known as “Mimi” to her grandchildren, a day never went by without her showing them love in some way. She attended every major event in their lives with, as she loved to say, “bells on.” She made Christmases magical and tough times bearable for everyone she loved.

Daughter – and primary caregiver for the last twelve years, Margaret “Margie” H. Traeger and husband John A. “Drew” Traeger Jr., their two sons: John “Andrew” A. Traeger III, spouse Megan M.

Majority Of Texans Delay Health Care Over Costs
(Houston, TX) -- An Episcopal Health Foundation report shows nearly two-thirds of Texans have skipped or postponed getting health care in the past year because of the costs. The Houston-based organization conducts the “Texas Health Tracking Survey” annually. The results show 64-percent of the respondents either skipped regular checkups or put off recommended tests or treatments. The study also found that 70-percent of Texans have a favorable view of the Texas Medicaid program. The survey found 57-percent say the state is not doing enough for children and low income adults and half say the state is not doing enough for pregnant women.
Clinical Trial Program Involving Unnamed Corpses Ends After Investigation
(Fort Worth, TX) -- A program in Texas that used unclaimed bodies for medical research is being suspended. It was being run by the University of North Texas Health Science Center, which also sold some of the cadavers to companies across the nation for medical trials. An investigation found the school failed to do research on the corpses and, when possible, contact family members. The school released a statement saying that there were failures in the so-called “Willed Body Program” and said the people in charge have been fired. They apologized to families who were impacted.
CDC Links Rise In Child Flu Deaths To Drop In Vaccinations
(Washington, DC) -- Federal officials are warning that a drop in vaccinations in the U.S. may have led to an increase in flu deaths among children. The CDC said Wednesday that nearly 200 children died from influenza-related illnesses during the most recent flu season, and that most of the children who died were eligible for a vaccine but didn’t receive one. It said the deaths coincide with overall drops in vaccinations among children. As of May, the CDC said only 53-percent of children in the U.S. were vaccinated for the flu this season, which is down from the previous year.
25 States Report COVID XEC Cases With NJ Topping List
(Atlanta, GA) -- Twenty-five states are now reporting COVID XEC cases. That’s according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention which says New Jersey tops the list with 15 infections out of the one-hundred or so reported in the U.S. Most of its samples come from international travelers clearing customs at Newark Liberty Airport. Twenty-seven countries have reported cases of the COVID XEC variant. Some of the earliest ones in the U.S. were found in Virginia back in July. Meantime, the CDC is recommending updated COVID-19 shots which were revised last month to target the KP-point-two strain. The FDA says it’s “highly confident” in this season’s COVID vaccine.
