"It feels great that we were able to help in some way," Pharr Fire Investigator Ruben Vera said. 'Although nothing can change the feeling that these people are having, that the nation is having basically, not just the City of Uvalde - but it feels good to know that we did what we could to try and comfort them a bit."

Pharr city officials also took care packages and teddy bears with notes of love to bring comfort to the children of Uvalde. The Pharr Police Department also brought along "Ammo", a certified therapy dog to put smiles on children's faces.
