Turkey with a side of companionship

Annual Thanksgiving meal available to those in need of more than food

Locals organizing an annual free Thanksgiving dinner are not just hoping to fill bellies — they're also hoping to provide some emotional nourishment.

The dinner, which will feature Thanksgiving staples like roasted turkey, dressing, mashed potatoes and gravy, and pie, will have two seatings at Al's Family Restuarant on Thanksgiving Day — one at noon and another at 1:30 p.m. The restaurant is located at 306 Liberty Street in downtown Morris.

Anyone is welcome to come — attendees are encouraged to call (815) 942-0921 in advance, however reservations are not required.
