RnB superstar, Beyonce, wrote an open letter to 18 year old Timmy Kelly, blind fan, born with Cerebral Palsy. Beyonce was first introduced to Timmy when he was just 13 years old backstage at the grammy awards. This young man stole her heart by singing her hit “Irreplaceable,” off of her second album, B-Day and has not forgotten about him since. 18 year old Timmy has now successfully graduated from high school and is now on his way to college. Bey, very proud of her fan, has written him a letter congratulating him on his academic achievement.
{THE FIRST TIME I MET TIMMY KELLY WAS IN 2007, BACKSTAGE AT THE GRAMMYS. HE WAS ONLY 13 AND HE TOUCHED MY HEART WITH HIS VOICE AND HIS LOVE OF MUSIC AND LIFE,
HE IS 18 NOW AND HE’S JUST GRADUATED HIGH SCHOOL – I’M SO PROUD OF HIM!
TIMMY WAS BORN BLIND, AND WITH CEREBRAL PALSY. BUT THIS NEVER SLOWED HIM DOWN – HE HAS PROVEN TO EVERYONE, THAT ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE IF YOU BELIEVE IN YOURSELF AND WORK HARD.
IN PHILADELPHIA, HE’S KNOWN AS THE GOOD LUCK CHARM TO THE EAGLES AND WHENEVER HE SINGS THE NATIONAL ANTHEM BEFORE A GAME THEY ALWAYS WIN.
HIS STRENGTH AND DETERMINATION IS AN INSPIRATION. TIMMY WAS JUST ACCEPTED TO THE TEMPLE UNIVERSITY’S BOYER COLLEGE OF MUSIC AND DANCE.
CONGRATULATIONS TIMMY! }
LOVE, B.
Timmy should be an inspiration for all suffering from Cerebral Palsy or any other disorder that nothing is impossible with hard work and determination.
Congratulations Timmy on your academic achievement. May God continue to bless you and your future endeavors.
