Recognizing Heroism at Red Lobster


General Manager, Lydia Fogle, and her staff at the Red Lobster in Youngstown, Ohio came together to recognize the heroism of a member on their waitstaff. Hear this amazing story below in Lydia’s own words.

Cassie and Devon

“We did a plaque ceremony for month one for our Above & Beyond Award and it went amazing! I attached a picture!

Cassie the server on the left was choking on food and Devon on the right saved her life by administration of the Heimlich Maneuver! Now that is Above & Beyond! I

t was a very emotional experience and I let Cassie do the actual presentation of the plaque. The whole staff came together for what I told them was a ‘rally in the alley’! It was amazing!

Thank you for providing a way to have this moment with my staff that is building relationships of great caliber and making the future positive!”
