NEED SOME HELP FROM ANY OF YARMOUTH MA MFP'ers OUT THERE. or if you know anyone in Yarmouth

I have an elderly aunt and uncle who live in S. Yarmouth and are in their 90's and not in the best of health. They have no one locally on the Cape to call upon for assistance. We are worried about them since we know they lost power last night around 10pm and at this point Yarmouth is still 75% out of power per the NSTAR grid map on line. We have not been able to reach them via phone. Tried calling Yarmouth PD-no luck with them. No phone number for the D-Y Shelter, No answer at the high school. Does anyone have any suggestions for us as to how we can find out if they are in the shelter?

    We have just heard from them. Working on trying to get them picked up and taken to a shelter or the hospital. My uncle is recuperating from pneumonia and my aunt is wheelchair bound. We are hopeful someone can get to them shortly, all he would say is that they are freezing cold and there is so much snow in front of the door they can't get it open.

    We are having problems getting them to agree to leave. They are late 80's- early 90's.

    Thanks everyone for your suggestions and prayers. We were finally able to get them off the Cape today and up to their daughters home in NH about 4 hrs away. Their pipes burst in their kitchen and things are a big mess, but they are safe and that is all that matters. Thank you God for watching over them.
