Community Rallies to Support Local Hero in Health Battle

 In an inspiring display of compassion, the Crockett County community is coming together to support one of their own, Blake Perry, a dedicated worker at the Crockett County Sheriff's Office, who is facing a challenging health diagnosis, Perry, known for his commitment to his role and his community, has recently been diagnosed with a tumor covering his pituitary gland, marking the beginning of a journey ahead. 

Understanding the pressure and financial strain that medical treatments can pose, friends, colleagues, and community members are stepping up to offer their support. To alleviate some of the burden on Perry and his family, an arm-wrestling event, which is open to all members of the community, is not just an opportunity to win exciting prizes but also a chance to contribute towards a noble cause. Raffle tickets are complimentary, with an invitation for participants to donate what they can. All proceeds from the event will go directly towards covering Blake Perry’s medical expenses, ensuring that he can focus on recovery without the added stress of financial hardship. 

Additionally, for those who might not be able to attend the event but still wish to contribute, an account has been set up in Blake Perry’s name at the Bank of Crockett. It’s a testament to the community’s spirit and generosity, providing a straightforward way for those to offer their support.
