A spaghetti feed and silent auction was held at Bridgeport Public Schools on Friday afternoon, August 27, to benefit the Bruno Ramos Memorial Fund. A huge crowd of at least 350 people was served by volunteers with over a hundred items donated for the auction. His family was present and were overwhelmed by the support and love that they have received from the community, saying the evening for Bruno was “amazing”. If you were unable to attend the event but would like to donate to the fund, you can stop by any Platte Valley Bank location to contribute. SARAH STRAWN
