organize incoming text message alerts under one contact

Hello, and thank-you for reading my post. I work in IT and when on call I receive text message alerts coming from a pool of phone numbers. I have added each new phone number under one contact called !Pager. Now all of the texts I receive are labeled as such but appear in separate conversations. Is there anyway it can be setup that they will end up in one conversation. After a week of on call the first 3 pages of my text conversations are filled with !Pager.
 
thank you, I am using the Verizon app. It syncs with my tablet. I'd prefer to continue with that but I'll read up on the features or install your suggestion to give it a try.
 
nice app, I may keep it. Unfortunately no additional options. I'm thinking if an app could solve this it would be an upgraded contacts app.
 
Any message app I've looked at organises threads by number, with the associated contact name just a label. There may be an app out there that can do what you want, but I don't know which.

The only way you'll be able to do it with the current app is if that app has a setting for it - which sounds not to be the case.
 
Thank you both for your comments, at this point I have some direction which is much more than I began with:)
