TO MY GRANDMOTHER AND UNCLE WILLIE

A Mother’s Dream Fulfi lled

Our mother’s dream has been fulfi lled. Remember when

We gathered at your house for prayer meetings

Th e songs we sang such as “What a Fellowship” we bowed

Our heads as you prayed, in that prayer a message would

Ring out making everyone want to shout.

Willie, my sweet brother who adored our mother, I

Just want to say that we are proud of you today.

I can remember we as children, the laughter and as we played.

On Sundays, we all depended on you to pray.

When you started out your prayer with the words

“our Father,” those words gave such a ring that made

Mother sing out, “My Lord, my Lord.” Mother knew then

Th at one day her sonny would fulfi ll her dream.

We are all gathered here today to let you know that we

Are so proud to witness our mother’s dream today.

It seems not too long ago I can hear my mother sing

“this little light of mine”

I’m gonna let it shine

that light is you, sonny

Mother would always say, sonny is going to be a

Minister one day. And today you have fulfi lled our

Mother’s dream.

To my grandmother and uncle Willie Steemer

To have had such a loving and influential person in their young lives gave Sonny the head start many children never have. Thank you for sharing this!
