BIBLE VERSE
"Beware of the teachers
of the law. They like to
walk around in flowing
robes and love to be
greeted with respect in
the marketplaces and
have the most important
seats in the synagogues
and the places of honor at
banquets. 47 They devour
widows'houses and for
a show make lengthy
prayers.These men will be
punished most severely."
— Luke 20:46-47
election, which the board can-
celed after no one else signed up
to run against Fontenot or incum-
bents Susan Moore-Fontenot or
Pete Alfaro.
Fontenot grew up in Bay town
living on a rice farm and later
graduated from Robert E. Lee
High School in 1981. In 1985,
Fontenot attended the University
of Texas and earned a Bachelor
in Business Administration in Fi-
nance. A few years later, in 1994,
he graduated from the University
of Houston at Clear Lake with a
Masters in Business Administra-
tion.
He then joined Merrill Lynch
since 2000, where he became a
certified financial planner and a
wealth management advisor. As
a longtime volunteer in the com-
munity, Fontenot has served on
various committees with Goose
Creek CISD, including chair-
ing the Citizen’s Bond Advisory
Committee. He is also a longtime
Rotarian, and is a past president,
and current secretary, of the Rota-

Saying goodbye to something is
always tough.
But that time has come for Dr.
Keith Cobum, who has served as a
regent for the college since 1986.
Coburn did not seek re-election
for a sixth term.
“As a board member, you are
a part of a team that makes deci-
sions, and it is nothing that I in-
dividually have personally done.
It is privileged to be a part of this
team,” Coburn said. “Of course,
I work with the current board
members, and there are 17 previ-
ous board members that I can re-
member who have all retired from
their service. And there have been
some relationships with some fine
folks. I had wonderful relation-
ships with people who loved the
college.”
Coburn was bom in Baytown
and has also practiced general
dentistry here for more than 30
years. He is now retired from his
practice.
After being appointed to re-
place Walter Buttrick, an Exxon-
should have offered assistance when that
was apparent, but instead he fatally shot
the 44-year-old woman.
Turner had struggled with paranoid
schizophrenia since her diagnosis in 2005,
and may have been in crisis the night she
was killed, Crump said during the press
conference. “She was a lady who had
mental health issues. What she needed
was a helping hand from the police offi-
cer. Instead she got five bullets,” Crump
