Melody’s hometown is Bridgeport, WV. She now lives in St. Clairsville and has two children, Britteny and Jeremy. She also enjoys having a grandchild, Jeremy’s son Aiden. Melody first attended EREFC in 1988.
She graduated from Shinnston High School in Shinnston WV and attended Bob Jones University, Greenville SC. She has been employed at a hardware store, a card shop, and in a couple churches.
Her interests include spending time with her grandson, reading, going to the mountains, bird watching, sewing, doing crafts, and shopping. You might not guess this, but Melody also loves target shooting and deer hunting, and has even owned her own motorcycle.
Listen to Melody play the piano and you would not believe that she has had only two years of formal piano training. She gives God all the glory for her music talent.
Hebrews 13:5b, “I will never leave thee or forsake thee,” is Melody’s favorite scripture passage. It reminds her that, “no matter who leaves me in this life due to illness, accidents, etc., my heavenly Father will never leave me.”
