Years in the making: Students weld arch over historic Boerne Cemetery

Editor’s note: This is a rerun of a story to correctly identify the Boerne ISD instructor as Dorman Vic rather than Vic Dorman.

BOERNE– A crowd of Boerne citizens comprised of students, parents and Boerne Independent School District and city officials gathered to witness the ribbon cutting for a new entrance arch at the East gate of Boerne City Cemetery May 19.

It took three years for local leaders to take the project from concept to completion, having propped up the marker just a week before calling on parents and supporters to celebrate its installment.
