Kendall County Sheriff's Office

06/08/2026

This weekend, it was a tremendous honor for our Kendall County Sheriff's Office Honor Guard team, along with Sheriff Al Auxier and Sgt. Pomeroy, to travel to El Paso and attend the high school graduation of Alex Ramirez, the son of Deputy Carlos Ramirez, who was tragically killed in the line of duty in 2019.

Being there to witness Alex walk across the stage and receive his diploma was a powerful and emotional moment. While Deputy Ramirez was taken from his family far too soon, his legacy continues to live on through his son and the remarkable young man he has become.

Law enforcement is a family, and it means so much to stand alongside the families of our fallen heroes during life's important milestones. We know Deputy Ramirez would have been incredibly proud of Alex's accomplishments, hard work, and perseverance.

Also in attendance were numerous Honor Guard teams and law enforcement agencies from across the El Paso area. Their presence, support, and willingness to stand alongside Alex and his family made this special day even more meaningful and served as a powerful reminder that the law enforcement community never forgets its own.

This meaningful trip was made possible through the generous support of the Kendall County Sheriff's Office Foundation and the Kendall County 100 Club. Their commitment to honoring our fallen heroes and supporting their families allows us to be present for moments like these that mean so much.

Congratulations, Alex! Your strength, determination, and character honor your father's memory in the best possible way. We are grateful to have shared this special day with you and your family.

Grand Finale Week for the Kendall County Citizens Law Enforcement Academy!

Last night was graduation, and what an incredible night it was. We started the evening with an amazing fajita dinner with all the fixings from Hungry Horse, generously provided by Hope for Heroes Boerne.

We then had the privilege of hearing remarks from Chief Perez, Chief Smith, and Sheriff Auxier before closing out the evening by reflecting on our time together, the relationships built, and everything learned throughout the academy.

The night concluded with the presentation of graduation certificates to this year’s class.

What an amazing class we had this year. We are so proud of each and every graduate and grateful for the time they committed to learning more about law enforcement and the men and women who serve Kendall County.

The Best is Yet to Come….

Today, during National Police Week, we came together for the Annual Kendall County Sheriff’s Office Law Enforcement Memorial, a time to honor and remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice while protecting our community.

This ceremony is more than a tradition. It is a moment to pause, reflect, and ensure that the lives and legacies of our fallen heroes are never forgotten. Behind every name is a story of courage, service, and a family that carries that sacrifice every day. We stand with them, today and always.

We are incredibly grateful to those who helped make this meaningful ceremony possible: the Kendall County Sheriff's Office Honor Guard, Boerne Police Department Honor Guard and Dispatch, Kendall County Fire Marshal’s Office Honor Guard, Bexar County Honor Guard, San Antonio Police Department Honor Guard, Constable Brian Vaughan, guitarist Tony Penny, Mini-Texans Christian Learning Center, Bag Piper - Patrick Murnin, Kendall County Judge Shane Stolarczyk, trumpeter Jim Manzo, Pastor John Free of Curry Creek Church, Black Rifle Coffee Company of Boerne, Empty Vase – Kam Walker, and the Kendall County Parks Department.

Because of each of you, we were able to properly honor those who gave everything in service to others.

National Police Week is more than a time of recognition; it is a time of remembrance. A time to pause and reflect on the unimaginable sacrifices made by the men and women who put on the badge and willingly walk into danger so others can make it home safely.

Behind every uniform is a human being. A parent. A spouse. A child. A friend. Someone who misses birthdays, holidays, dinners, and sleep to answer calls for help from complete strangers. They carry burdens most will never fully understand, yet they continue to show up, day after day, with courage, strength, and servant hearts.

This week, the Kendall County Sheriff’s Office honors not only those who continue to serve our communities with integrity and bravery, but especially the heroes who paid the ultimate price in the line of duty. Their sacrifice echoes far beyond the moment they were taken. It lives on in the hearts of their families, their brothers and sisters in blue, and the communities forever changed by their loss.

To every officer still standing the line today: thank you. Thank you for answering a calling that demands so much of you. Your courage matters. Your sacrifice matters. And your lives matter.

And to the fallen: your sacrifice will never, ever be forgotten. There are no words strong enough to repay what they have given. But we will remember them. We will speak their names. We will honor their legacy.

We honor the fallen.
We support the living.
And we will never forget.

What a crazy, fun, and informative last two weeks it’s been at the Citizens Law Enforcement Academy!

Last week kicked off with some delicious BBQ generously provided by Hill Country Family Services. Thank you for helping fuel a great night. While enjoying dinner, we dove right into our Mental Health units and the incredible services they provide, not only to our community but also to our first responders. After a short break, we transitioned into a powerful and eye-opening discussion on the use of force. It was truly an incredible evening filled with important conversations and learning.

This week was just as impressive, starting with amazing Italian food provided by the Kendall County 100 Club. Thank you for your continued support. From there, participants got a behind-the-scenes look at what it takes to be a Detention Officer and gained insight into the vital role they play in our operations. We wrapped up the night with a tour of the jail and Sheriff’s Office, giving everyone a firsthand look at what happens day in and day out.

We are so grateful to everyone who helps make this program possible and to the participants who continue to show up eager to learn. It’s been an outstanding couple of weeks!
