“Frances Semler, who was the focus of months of controversy because of her affiliation with an anti-illegal immigration organization, has resigned from the city parks board.Semler, 74, said Tuesday she resigned because her involvement with the Kansas City Parks and Recreation Board had become too contentious and she did not feel Mayor Mark Funkhouser supported her.

“I feel betrayed,” she said. “From time to time they would say good things, but from time to time there would be something hurtful. … But it all piles up.”"*
