In the summer of 2017, Dr. Mel met Liz Ashe Havrilla, author of One Step at a Time. After hearing her story of surviving Hurricane Katrina, she helped Liz by editing her book and writing the introduction. “It is a very special book with power,” Dr. Mel said. Because of this book, she is writing the companion book, The Golden Needle and Thread, a devotional for healing. Both books are based from real life experiences and show the power of faith and hope. They are available on Amazon.com or on her website.
Dr. Mel’s hobbies include painting, photography, boating, and collecting antique marbles. Her original art as well as her marble collection are on display at Family Tree Antiques & Treasures in Bay St. Louis, MS. And, yes, this is the antique store that Jackie and Margarette visited. You can have that experience too.
