More than just an evening of socializing, the ball is a celebration of the department members and those who gave the ultimate sacrifice. Mountain Top News spoke with Pikeville Fire Chief Johnny Cole to learn more. This is an amazing turnout, seeing all these people, all these brothers and sisters throughout the community. People that we work with and we serve, it's been amazing just to see their faces and have a smile, have a laugh, have a cry. So what we're doing is we're honoring those ones that passed before us in a lot of duty days. That's what's going to be on our Firefighter Memorial. These names that's listed, we have a piece of paper that's laminated on each table so they know who they're actually remembering and how they passed away in the ultimate line of duty sacrifice. As the night went on, more community members joined in to share stories over dinner. Pikeville Fire Department values those who have stood by them over the years. So we've got some great sponsors throughout the year, but tonight, as you can see, a lot of smile faces. More and more working, it's all serious, it's all business. And now these guys and these girls and these family members, they can sit there and laugh and cut up, tell stories. And that's what it's all about, is making sure that our community knows that we're out there, we love them and they love us. Just being up here with everybody, all of those sisters, it gives us a lot to look forward to next year when we have it. How we can improve it, how we can have more people, and how we can serve those people. Reporting for Mountain Top News, I'm Nick Collum.
