I think my brother was her neighbor. They stayed but got out right before the storm surge absolutely destroyed the house. He also destroyed a truck trying to get to a neighbor’s house that was set further back.

Is/was he a surgeon? They rebuilt about 50 yards back. Maybe a guy who owned a local specialty auto shop.
It was crazy how many people stayed. Most were older and longtime residents. I think they felt a false sense of security because their neighborhood didn't flood in Camille.
The strength of the water is very underestimated. My Aunt's house is probably set back close to 200' from Scenic. Not only did we find sections of boardwalk behind the house, but large chunks of asphalt from (presumably) Scenic Dr were scattered in the front yard and UNDER the house. Try dragging a ~3' x 3' x 2" slab of asphalt on your hands and knees from under a house. Crazy times!
I found a nice, largely intact fish cleaning station washed back to almost to 2nd St. Never could repurpose it. Too much other shite going on.
