About 10 miles south of Goliad in the Diocese of Victoria in Texas, a 2000 Ford 250 extended cab pick-up truck

carrying 23 possible illegal immigrants crashed, killing 14 of its passengers. The nine injured survivors remain in

hospitals located in four cities including San Antonio and Corpus Christi. Father Stan DeBoe, O.SS.T., pastor of

Holy Family Parish in Victoria, went to the site of the accident on a very busy and dangerous section of Hwy. 59

to bless the site and pray for the dead and injured. Others attending with him were, from his left, Buddy Kamin,

Valerie Jurica, and Sister Maria Garcia, MCHS. Photo by Cynthia Brewer, The Catholic Lighthouse.
