The Willacy County Sheriffs Department is implementing a new
program that allow relatives who live elsewhere to be contacted in case of an emergency
involving a loved one residing in Willacy County. "We have many older retired
citizens who have children elsewhere and are concerned about their parents. Through this
program the children will forward us their address and phone numbers and the address and
phone numbers of their loved ones residing in Willacy County. Then if there is an
emergency of some nature we can make contact with the relatives to advise them of the
situation, " commented Sheriff Spence. This program will also be available for Winter
Texans who want to list emergency numbers for contact up
North. All listings will be kept confidential and used only in case of an emergency.
