Fidolin Dillon

"Sing like no one's listening, love like you've never been hurt, dance like nobody's watching, and live like its heaven on earth." - Unknown My fondest memories of my Godmother are ones where she personifies this quote. We are often blessed with great people: our parents, guardians, children, friends, etc. I was blessed with Fidolin, Godmother extraordinaire. When she wasn't busy being a mother to her own children or a strong woman of God she was my godmother and honestly it was no easy feat as I was not an easy child. In order to appreciate my relationship and love for my Godmother, you would first need to understand how the Great Fidolin Dillon became MY Godmother. Before she was a mother, my Godmother was my mother's best friend at church and like many other women, when church friends become parents it's the job of the best friend from church to become a godparent, so that's how the greatest Godmother in the world, became my godmother. In fact, when my godmother became a mother her firstborn became my mother's Godchild. My godmother played an active role in my upbringing. She made sure that I was actively involved in church activities. She was even my choir director! I even had the privilege of being the flower girl at her wedding and on vacation at her house on holidays. As we say farewell to her there is one thing to remains true and will always be with us, regardless of how you met my godmother it will always leave a lasting impression. Not only did her smile, charm and grace captivate you, but her entire being. My Godmother was an experience. One that will never be forgotten by time.
