His health never stopped him from wanting to pursue his dream. He once said “DON’T JUST PRAY 2 TAKE THE PAIN AWAY…. PRAY 2 LET GOD KNOW HOW WONDEROUS HE IS…. HOW AMAZING, HOW BLESSED U R BECAUSE OF HIM. LET HIM KNOW U R ONE OF HIS CHILDREN, & NOTHING CAN TAKE HIS GLORY FROM YOUR SOUL”. Willie considered himself “MORE THAN AN ARTIST”.
