Kent Bower checks out the exhibit about former Kerr County Sheriff Frances Kaiser at the Frontier Times Museum in Bandera following her induction into the museum’s Hall of Honor.A former Kerr County sheriff, a bullfighting clown and an Irish immigrant to Bandera were inducted into the Frontier Times Museum’s Texas Heroes Hall of Honor.
Frances Hubble Kaiser, a Bandera County native, served as one of the few female sheriffs in Texas from 1989 to 1999. She was Kerr County’s first female sheriff. She and the other honorees accepted their awards at a ceremony last week.“I feel very honored by the life I’ve had, and I give all credit to God,” Kaiser said.
He’d been watching some rodeo cowboys practicing, and the guy in charge asked him to go in and try distracting the bull from the cowboys, which is one of the main purposes of a rodeo clown. The man told him that all he had to do was “run fast and act goofy.” “They kicked me out of school for that, and you’re going to pay me?” Coffee said, spurring laughter from the standing-room-only crowd.Inducted posthumously into the Texas Heroes Hall of Honor was Irish immigrant Mary McGroarty, who disembarked from the Queen Mary at Ellis Island in 1951 at the age of 26. She and her husband ran the M. Boyle Mercantile General Store and later the Old Spanish Trail Restaurant, or OST, in Bandera.
“Mary’s devotion to St. Stanislaus was deep as she prepared the altar with Mary Stein for several decades and through her work in the church’s food pantry,” according to a news release from the museum. “Her love of history came through in her work to help establish the Bandera County Historical Commission with Margie Langford.
