PORT ORANGE – The Port Orange-based law firm of Rue & Ziffra is helping a local firefighters’ union sponsor a golf tournament next month that will benefit a local firefighter who has cancer.
Craig Morrisey, a 27-year-old firefighter/driver engineer for Port Orange Fire and Rescue, recently was diagnosed with a rare form of cancer called a desmoplastic small round cell tumor.
Port Orange Professional Firefighters Local 3118 is hosting the Dec. 3 tournament to offset the costs Morrisey is incurring as he battles the illness, according to Luis Gracia√, a partner in Rue & Ziffra’s personal-injury law firm.
“We’re very happy to be a part of an event to help someone who spends so much of his time helping others,” Gracia said.
The tournament – a four-person scramble – will begin at 8:30 a.m. with a shotgun start at the Golf Club at Cypress Head in Port Orange. Tickets, which include green fees, cart, lunch, door prizes and entrance in a VIP tent, are $75 per person.
Donations of sponsorships, gift certificates or services also are appreciated, Gracia said. Visit registration@portorangefirefighterstore.com to register.
