Foreword excerpts by Lolita Cummings Carson: "UnDying Love of a Mother - the Odessie Williams Story" is a true story of family, love, and loss. Kelcy's family was a lot like mine. Parents who migrated from the South to Flint, Michigan for the promise of higher wages and better living conditions. Two parents who loved one another without fail and siblings who were tightly woven within the fabric of family. A father who worked long hours in the automobile plant to put food on the table and provide for his family, and a mother who dedicated herself to the education of others within the public-school system. And there was one more common element that stood out above all else: a love for God, Jesus as Savior, and the commitment to fulfill Joshua 24:15 - "But as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord."Kelcy begins "UnDying Love of a Mother - the Odessie Williams Story" with a string of desperate questions. Her sisters have just called with news. The "W's" and "H" overpower Kelcy's mind: What!? Why!? How!?Along her journey throughout the book, Kelcy shares her life's story, as only someone who hails from a Southern, Christian family ever could. She uses descriptive words so vibrant that you'll feel like you're in the same car as she and her family travel back "home" to the South every summer to visit family and friends. The stops at Stuckey's roadside stores, delicious Southern meals upon arrival, and teenage mischief will bring back fond memories.In this book, you'll feel the anguish as Mrs. Odessie Williams experiences a sad new normal for years, and you'll cringe from the torment as she herself is left in the dark. Mostly though, you'll feel the love that Kelcy, her father, and her siblings felt for Mrs. Williams - a woman of grace, character, and wisdom. A woman who certainly deserves this compelling book - as it's a story that only Kelcy and her siblings can tell.
