Seguin celebrates Veterans Day with annual parade, ceremony Cindy Aguirre-Herrera
Carolyn Cherry, of the McQueeney VFW Auxilary 9213, couldn't help but thank and greet 90-year-old Post WWII (Women's Army Corps) Veteran Betty Jean Youngblood during Wednesday's Veterans Day ceremony. Also joining the program at Seguin's Veterans Park was Youngblood's daughter Pamela Perkins who also served in the U.S. Air Force.
(Seguin) -- For 90-year-old Betty Jean Youngblood, Veterans Day is about recalling those memories and sharing how proud she was to have served her country post WWII. Youngblood, a member of the Women’s Army Corps (WAC) from 1952-1954, was among those in attendance and was recognized during
Seguin’s annual Veterans Day Ceremony at Veterans Park. The Seguin Daily News, on Wednesday, had the honor of talking one-on-one with Youngblood, who today serves as a reminder of the generations of men and women who have fought for our freedoms. Veterans, pg. 3

The church, which is a partner of the San Antonio Food Bank, will host its first official food pantry distribution Thursday from 1 to 2 p.m. The distribution will take place at the church, located at 208 South Crockett Street. Residents of Seguin, Guadalupe County and surrounding communities are invited to sign up and receive food. Attendees are asked to bring their own bags, boxes, or wagons to carry their food items. For more information, call the church at 830-4337004. Meanwhile, another pop-up food distribution is scheduled for Saturday.

Veterans, continued. Youngblood, born in upstate New York in 1936, says she has very fond memories of those earlier days, especially when her journey in the military first began. “Oh, it was a joy. I had never left my hometown and so to leave there and even get on an airplane at 18 -that was scary. I was first stationed in Alabama, where I took my military training and (I) went to New York and from there, I would transfer to Governor’s Island and I served there,” said Youngblood. Despite the challenges of being young and away from home, she looks back on those military years with deep appreciation. When asked about her best military memory, Youngblood couldn’t help but smile and laugh as she answered. “It has to do with making my bed because I had been a smarty in my class and spoke out loud and made everybody laugh. So, that was my punishment. It’s either that or wiping the black marks off the stairs from our boots,” said Youngblood. Now living outside Seguin in a 100-year-old farmhouse her family is gradually restoring, Youngblood says
www.SEGUINTODAY.com
she remains grateful for her life, her family, and the opportunity to serve her country. When asked what message she would share with today’s generations about Veterans Day, her answer was simple. “Take care of your country. Vote, be proud of who you are. And thank God every day,” said Youngblood. Her daughter, Pamela, says her mother’s military service is just one part of what makes her so special. Pamela, who also served in the military, says she has always been drawn to military life, although her own path was cut short. Pamela served in the U.S. Air Force from 1983 to 1986. She was working as a technical specialist when she developed a seizure disorder that prevented her from continuing in her position. She ultimately received an honorable discharge. As for her mother, Pamela says she is still amazed by her memories of her military years and the people she served alongside 70 years ago. “Oh, I’m amazed at her. She is very unique. And is sharp as a tack. I mean, she gave me stories from back when she was in the military -- people, she served with, and where

they moved to and all of that,” said Pamela. While Youngblood’s presence was acknowledged, it was Jeremy Pedersen, pastor of Faith Lutheran Church, who served as the guest speaker at this year’s Veterans Day Ceremony. Since arriving in Seguin, Pedersen, a military veteran, has shared how his service to our country has extended into the faith community. Before the ceremony, the Seguin community also gathered for the annual Veterans Day Parade. The parade, which traveled from downtown Seguin to Veterans Park on Jefferson Avenue, featured a handful of floats. The top float winners include: First Place, Seguin High School’s Jr. ROTC; Second Place, the Disabled American Veterans (DAV) Doug Herrle Chapter 61 and Third Place, the 1910 car. The annual celebration is organized each year by the DAV with the support of the local Veterans Council. The council includes various veterans organizations serving the Seguin and Guadalupe County area. See more photos on page 4.

her willingness to stand firmly in her beliefs, and her desire to contribute to the causes she considered meaningful. Whether through her faith, her heritage, or her community involvement, Rebecca approached the things that mattered to her with conviction and wholehearted dedication. Above all, Rebecca’s greatest legacy is found in the love she shared and the relationships she held dear. She understood that the true measure of a life is not found in the passing of years, but in the memories created, the lives touched, and the love that remains long after a final farewell. Rebecca leaves behind her beloved husband, Don Slocum, and her father-in-law, Karel Clettenberg I, who, along with those fortunate enough to have known her, will continue to cherish her memory. She was preceded in death by her beloved son, Karel Clettenberg III, whose memory remained an enduring and treasured part of her heart. Though separated by death, the bond between a mother and her child is one that time can never diminish. As family and friends reflect upon Rebecca’s life, may they find comfort in the moments shared, the laughter remembered, and the faith that sustained her. While her earthly journey has come to an end, the love she gave and the memories she leaves behind will continue to live in the hearts of those who loved her. May she now find eternal peace in the presence of her Lord and Savior, where earthly sorrow gives way to everlasting joy, and where the promise of a heavenly reunion brings comfort to those she leaves behind. A Celebration of Rebecca’s Life will be held on Saturday, November 21, 2026, at the Seguin Silver Center from 12:00 p.m. to 3 p.m. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to Guadalupe Regional Hospice Services, 1215 E.

Rebecca Ruth Broughton passed away peacefully on October 14, 2026, in Seguin, Texas, surrounded by the love and comfort of those she held most dear. Born on July 10, 1961, in Shreveport, Louisiana, Rebecca lived a life rooted in unwavering faith, deeply held convictions, and a genuine love for the people and communities that shaped her journey. Her passing leaves a profound absence in the hearts of those who knew her, yet her memory remains a lasting testament to a life lived with purpose, strength, and devotion. A woman of steadfast Christian faith, Rebecca placed her trust in the Lord and allowed her beliefs to guide her throughout life’s many seasons. Her faith was more than a cherished part of her life; it was the foundation upon which she built her values, nurtured her relationships, and faced both life’s blessings and its challenges. She carried her convictions with sincerity and remained devoted to the principles she held close to her heart. Rebecca possessed a spirited personality and found happiness in life’s simple pleasures. She especially enjoyed shopping, never passing up the opportunity to discover a good sale at Funky Monkey or spend time exploring the treasures and lively atmosphere of local trade days. These outings were more than favorite pastimes; they reflected her appreciation for life’s little joys, her enthusiasm for a good find, and the pleasure she took in connecting with others. Proud of her Cherokee heritage, Rebecca cherished her citizenship in the Cherokee Nation and the rich history and traditions it represented. She was equally passionate about her involvement in the community, serving as an active and dedicated member of the Guadalupe County Republican Party. Her participation reflected her strong sense of civic responsibility,

Pennsylvania Surpasses 1,500 Measles Cases In 2026 (Harrisburg, PA) -- The measles outbreak in Pennsylvania has surpassed 15-hundred cases. Health officials say there have been 15-hundred and five cases of measles in the state this year as of Monday. The Pennsylvania Department of Health has confirmed six measles-associated deaths. About of the third of the cases are in Lancaster County, which is home to the largest Amish population in the U.S. AI Heart Scans Prompt More Preventive Treatment (Charlottesville, VA) -- Artificial intelligence could soon change how doctors prevent heart attacks. A new study co-led by the University of Virginia found 75 percent of chest pain patients were prescribed cholesterol medication following AI-guided heart scans: that compares to 47 percent when doctors used traditional stress tests to decide treatment. Researchers say a separate clinical trial is now underway to test whether their AI-guided treatment can prevent heart attacks. Number Of Runners Treated After Santa Barbara Half-Marathon Rises to 30 (Santa Barbara, CA) -- The number of runners medically treated after the Santa Barbara Half-Marathon in California on Sunday is up to 30. Twenty-six runners were taken to emergency rooms. The County Public Health Department says all showed heat illness symptoms after running in 86-degree temps. Some people think someone may have spiked or drugged a water station but Santa Barbara health inspectors have found no evidence of that. More Women Getting Bladder Cancer (Cleveland, OH) -- November is Bladder Health Awareness Month. The Cleveland Clinic is highlighting recent research which shows trends are changing as who is getting bladder cancer. The organization says it is seeing that females make up 30 percent of all bladder cancer cases. That number used to be around 25 percent. Laura Bukavina, an oncologist at Cleveland Clinic says bladder cancer seems to be on the rise in women younger than 50. Experts say there’s no answer as to why other than speculation of a possible association with air pollution and microplastics.
