Prayer And Candlelight Vigil Held For Watson Family

More than 100 people packed the Calvary Baptist Church in Muhlenberg County on Friday night.

They were there for a candlelight vigil in honor of the Watson Family.

The Watson’s home caught fire around 2 a.m. on Thursday.

Police said the mother and eight of her children died inside the home from smoke inhalation. The only survivors, the father and a daughter, remain in critical condition in a Nashville hospital.

Investigators said the baseboard heater in one of the three bedrooms caught combustible materials on fire.

They are ruling this fire as accidental.
