Marie and Hanie Nasri of Marie's Bistro pose with their grandchildren. Marie Nasri, who owns Marie’s Bistro along with her husband Hanie, was recently involved in a tragic elevator shaft accident that broke both her feet, ankles and legs.
She now has a long and expensive recovery ahead and the community is coming together to help.
On Wednesday, June 8, from 7 to 8:30 pm, come out to Marie’s Bistro for an evening of ‘Blues at Blue Mountain Beach’ featuring Jeff Carlisi, one of the founding members of the band .38 Special, blues music by other local musicians including former presidential candidate and politician Mike Huckabee.
“We love Hanie and Marie,” said Huckabee. “They are wonderful friends; wonderful, kind and gracious people. When I heard about the tragedy, I was shocked and couldn’t imagine what those type of bills would do to them financially. So, I saw Jeff Carlisi and said, ‘Let’s do something,’ and he agreed.”
“That is part of the charm of this place. When a neighbor needs help, everyone chips in.”
Huckabee will play during the event and he invites anyone else who plays an instrument to come and join him.
So drop by with your friends and family to enjoy some great blues music and, in turn, help chase Marie’s blues away by making a contribution to the fund set up to help with her medical and rehabilitation expenses.
