"Have a beer, doctor's orders," Mildred Bowers of Mount Pleasant told WCSC last week during her birthday party at Page's Okra Grill. 

"Look, there are people who don't like coffee and people who don't like tea, but I want everyone to drink what they like," she told WCSC.

"It's all in the genes," she told WCSC, adding that she is in "good health" and her "mind is good."
