Why this matters in Willis
The Montgomery County Sheriff's Office decision to honor Deputy Erick Serrato's family during the July 4th DWI Task Force briefing holds particular significance for the community of Willis , where residents are served by the same sheriff's office. As a city located along Interstate 45, a major thoroughfare, Willis is not immune to the dangers of drunk driving, and the task force's efforts are crucial in keeping its roads safe.
