Owners of a new restaurant in Atlantic Beach raised money Sunday morning to help their friend who was just diagnosed with a rare form of brain cancer.

– But when the owners, Nick and Zach Presti heard about their long-time friend Taylor Rossmoore ’s cancer diagnosis they instantly felt like they had to do something to help him and his family. So, they decided to use their recently opened restaurant to raise funds for him and his medical expenses.“There’s no better timing and no better place than to kind of get the get some funds rolling for the things he’s going to encounter over the next nine weeks,” Nick said.

It was a full house Sunday morning at EggBoy. While the owners didn’t have a set goal, they said they hoped to raise around $5,000 for Roosemoore.
