With Thanksgiving just hours away, Coweta County sheriff's deputies and firefighters spent the day with families across the community -- delivering over 300 meals to families in need.
Each meal included a full turkey -- up to 25 pounds -- and other classics, like stuffing, green beans, mashed potatoes, fruit cocktail and cranberry sauce.
Deputy Gabe Binon is not an UberEATs driver, but he's certainly made his fair share of food deliveries.
"I thank God for them, I am just thankful," said Pamela Woods -- one of the first people visited by Coweta County volunteers.
Woods said the oversized turkey with all the fixings will help feed her large family -- including her eight children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She said she's not "the cook" in the family -- but she does her part.
"I do all the cleaning and they do the cooking," Woods said.

In all, deputies and firefighters made 330 stops on Thanksgiving Eve.
Each turkey weighed between 20 to 25 pounds -- feeding up to 10 people each.
"We tried to make it where we could feed the entire family that's coming for Thanksgiving, and not just the individual we were helping out," Binon said.
Down the road, officers met Shelia Hill. She's preparing her Thanksgiving meal with her teenage daughter.
"I like to put butter and brown sugar on it with aluminum foil and put it in the oven," Hill said.
Her daughter -- now considered her sous chef -- is helping out with the sides.
"She does a lot of cooking, she's been cooking since she was 10," Hill said. "She does good for a 16-year-old."
All of the food that fills Coweta County's pallets this year and in years past has been paid for by one man -- but Coweta County Lt. Cornell Len Wood wouldn't spill the beans on who it is.
"We have a benefactor actually paying for everything the last 15 years, and he did it again this year," Wood said. "He doesn't want anyone to know who he is."
Wood said that the mystery man feels blessed to be able to help, two times over.
"Not only does he hear about the families from us, but to see the smiles on our faces makes it worth his while," Wood said.
Now that families have their Thanksgiving feasts, Coweta County is gearing up for Christmas -- with a big toy drive coming up next month.
