Free meal distributed in Franklin and Morgan for Thanksgiving

Several businesses in Morgan and Franklin pooled their resources over the Thanksgiving holiday to make sure everyone had a good Thanksgiving meal. In Morgan, the Broken Spoke Saloon, F&M bank, WeCare, Kerkhoff Plumbing & Heating, Becker's Super Valu and Henry's Foods joined forces to distribute a free meal to anyone in need. The meal there was donated in honor of Mike & Joe Larsen, who were both devoted to serving their community. In Franklin, the Longbranch Saloon, the Franklin State Bank, and the Olivia Hospital and Clinic Foundation served the meals, along with the assistance of private donations. Over 130 people were served at each location. (Staff photos by Lori Kopischke)
