Bravo to Summit police
Thank you, Summit Police Chief Alex Miller and staff.
As a resident of Summit, it’s good to know the chief has a positive attitude. According to the recent article in the paper, he has been on the job for six months.
He knows the area because, the article said, he grew up in this area and attended school and college here. That is a plus because it probably helps him, I’m sure.
Chief Miller, I’m praying for you and your staff. It takes everyone to make Summit a safe place to live. It’s sad that school has to start for officers to be less busy.
Parents should be held accountable for their children. Depending on the crime, some children should be charged as an adult.
“You definitely have to make a stand and say enough is enough,” Miller said in the article.
Let’s wake up, Summit, and support Chief Miller and his staff. When we see them, let’s encourage them. Kind and supportive words go a long way. Then, as children see adults interacting, maybe it will make a difference.
Let’s also pray for Chief Miller’s and his staff’s families. I know there are probably stressful times, and we should pray for the Town of Summit.
I appreciate each and every member of the Summit Police Department. God bless.

Help for a Honduran child
It is through these words from my heart I wish to express the beautiful journey I have experienced with one very special cleft lip-palate patient: Ericka Pineda, a child who lives in Honduras.
I’ve taken care of Ericka’s anesthesias since her first surgical process in August 2022. She is a sweet, brave, smart little lady who has endured every step of her surgical process.
I also had the most pleasant pleasure of meeting the kindest, most loving caregiver that this little girl could have, Mr. Robin Fenn of Amite County.
He above all has been a knight with the shining armor in this story. He is always looking out for her to be on time for her appointments, always supporting and being present during surgical procedures.
He is very attentive to all instructions for care and is in constant communication with the medical treatment team.
It has been a medical journey full of love and compassion. It is a reminder that we as human beings have the potential to love one another as family.
If all children in the world had angels like Ericka has the fortune to have, millions of children would have access to safer surgical care. I only wish the best for little Ericka and beg God to make each and every one of us a little more like Mr. Robin Fenn in our daily lives.
