Captain Ron Spriggs Fish Fry a Success
Font Size:

Saturday was a day about community support, and NewsChannel 7 was there to show you how locals came together for the Captain Ron Spriggs Fish Fry at the Blue Top Waffle Shop.

At four o'clock people began walking through the door of the Blue Top Waffle Shop for two things: to eat fresh Amberjack, Grouper, Snapper, French fries, and homemade Hushpuppies; but more importantly, to show support for Captain Ron Spriggs.

The hushpuppies were definitely a hit, and Philip Scarborough, personal friend of Ron Spriggs, and the master hushpuppy chef said, "Captain Ron Spriggs is a dear friend of mine, he's, you could say part of the family, and he currently has inoperable brain tumors and we're just trying to raise money for his family to pay for medical bills."

For those of you who were unable to make it to the Fish Fry, you can always stop by the Blue Top Waffle Shop and drop off a donation to benefit the Captain Ron Spriggs Foundation. Next month is National Brain Tumor awareness month; stay tuned for more events in the community to help out Captain Ron.

I have only met Ron once or twice, but that is all it took. Not to mention he is special friends of my best friend Lisa Bridges and her husband Captain Squidd. If anyone can help this man out please do, he would give the shirt off his back if it made a difference in someones life. Now it is time for the community to make a difference in his life. It is called " Pay it forward".
