WEST FRANKFORT, IL (KFVS) -Hundreds of people from across the West Frankfort community gathered on Saturday for an all you can eat chili supper.
This marks the 16th year for the West Frankfort Fire Department to cook up some of it's famous chili, and invite everyone in to enjoy.
"It brings in extra cash flow to the department," said Chief Wes Taylor. "But mainly it gives the citizens a chance to come in and see what we've purchased, what we've done with their contributions."
But, for many who ponied up the six dollars to enjoy an endless bowl of chili, they say it's the contributions from the department they appreciate.
"Well it's a very good thing they do here, I'm tickled to death to be able to support the fire department," said Roy Peebels. "I wish I could do more for them they're a good group of guys. And they're a very important function to our city."
It wasn't all about warm bowls of chili and some good conversations among neighbors that kept people lining up for more food, they also wanted to remember PFC Chaz Ligon. He was severely injured on a battlefield in Afghanistan last month.
And now he is recovering in a Texas hospital. Many of those who attended the chili supper were happy to help fill a can with cash to help Ligon's family with expenses.
"He seems to be a great guy, and he's a hero for our community," said Bob Whittington. "And everybody around town is just supporting this young man and his effort to recover as quickly as possible."
Franklin County leaders plan to extend as much help as they can to PFC Ligon's mother and step-father. On Tuesday they will be working out the details on an ordinance to allow county workers to donate their sick time to the Ligons' so they can remain at their son's side at Fort Sam Houston, Texas.
