You've heard the joke, "Quick, what's the number for 911?"
While even children know 911, many other numbers may not be as easy to find in an emergency. People used to use phone books but now most people use the internet. However, may I suggest that you print out this page of numbers and keep it on the refrigerator or someplace handy where it can be accessed in an emergency.
Remember these are emergency numbers and not every day use numbers. Please keep 911 and these other phone lines open for true emergencies.

I have seen several such posts of phone numbers and sorry, I just don't get it. Everyone who has a phone has a phone book.
