I chose this center because I had heard excellent things about the therapy department here—and they were absolutely true! Medilodge of Sterling's Therapy Department is the place to go for any rehab. They get an A++ in my book! Megan, Lexi, and Mike all worked incredibly hard to make therapy both fun and appropriately challenging, helping me make real progress. They offered a wide variety of exercises and activities that strengthened my legs. When I first arrived, I couldn’t even stand on it—but now, I’m moving all over the place!

Melissa was born in Hawaii in 1971 while her father, Carl, was serving as a Military Police Officer in the United States Air Force. Throughout her childhood she lived in Boyne City and Boyne Falls before moving to Saginaw, where she graduated from Arthur Hill High School in 1989.

Family has always been the heart of Melissa’s life. She shares a strong and loving bond with her parents, Karen and Carl, and her three siblings—Janet, Andy and Chris. She is also a proud mother of three wonderful children: Sgt. Scott Howard of the U.S. Army, Cody and Emily. Her greatest joy comes from her six beautiful grandchildren, who light up her world.

Melissa cherishes time spent with her loved ones, whether it’s singing karaoke together or gathering for Sunday dinners filled with stories, laughter, and connection. During the summer months, she enjoys helping out around the family campground. She also loves spending time with friends, doing arts and crafts, and working on puzzles.

Driven by compassion, Melissa finds deep purpose in helping others. She has previously worked with individuals with special needs and is eager to return to that meaningful work. Her faith is also a guiding force in her life; she has been very active in her church, leading both the singles ministry and the card ministry.

Melissa is easily recognized by her bright smile, positive spirit, and remarkable resilience. She has a gift for lifting others up - offering comfort, encouragement, and plenty of laughter along the way.

We are honored and deeply grateful to have Melissa as a part of our Medilodge family, and we wish her all the very best on her healing journey.

Tammy was born in Fort Knox, Kentucky before her family moved to Sterling. She has 3 sisters and 1 brother. The pictures show her parents and siblings. They are so cute! A favorite childhood memory is when Tammy’s mom sewed matching red, white, and blue shirts for all 7 of the family for a trip to Yellowstone. That is a lot of sewing!

Tammy married Bill, her high school sweetheart, in 2002. Together, they have 5 children and 10 grandchildren that make up their beautiful family. Oh and let’s not forget about Honey the dog! Tammy lives in Sterling on their family farm with her husband and over 700 cows. She said that life is always very interesting.

The best part of her job is her coworkers, caring for the residents, and feeling like she is making a difference. Tammy loves spending time with family, camping, fishing, and gardening. A perfect weekend would be camping with her family and Honey dog.

An interesting hobby that she has is that she is a floral designer as well as a teacup collector. The one thing that Tammy can’t live without is her faith. It is a very big part of her life. Tammy’s best friend would describe her as hard working, kind, forgiving, a good listener, and a problem solver! One of Tammy’s dreams is to retire and travel with her husband and adorable Honey the dog. Possibly to Wyoming on a return trip. She would also love to visit Ireland and Hawaii.

Favorite foods were a hard decision to narrow down but chocolate, pizza, and a bowl of Lucky Charms with milk made the top 3!!! Tammy’s superpower would be time manipulation, so that she could spend more time with loved ones that were taken too soon. With Tammy’s positive attitude and a smile for everyone, she brings a bit of sunshine to everyone she meets.

PLEASE JOIN ME IN CONGRATULATING TAMMY ON BEING DECEMBER EMPLOYEE OF THE MONTH!!!!
