Another Love Story – Hannibal & Kellie
Kellie Williams, known for her role on Family Matters as Laura Winslow, earlier this year had an interview with essence and briefly discussed her upcoming nuptial http://www.essence.com/news_entertainment/entertainment/articles/flashback_fridays_kellie_williams_of_family_matters/ Hannibal and Kellie are scheduled to wed September 5, 2009. Below they share how the two met and fell in love.
To GOD be the Glory! Hannibal and Kellie were scheduled to meet three years prior to their actual meeting. We believe that GOD kept us from one another for a specific reason. This allowed us to continue to improve as people, as a son and daughter, brother and sister, friend and colleague but none more important than a believer in Jesus Christ. During those three years there were often inquiries about each other and one’s availability; however, that time allowed us to continue developing our personal relationship with our Lord and Savior.
Rob Brown and Lori Adams were best friends. Rob and Hannibal were friends, co-workers and brothers in Christ. Lori and Kellie were friends, former roomates and sisters in Christ. Rob was the one who suggested that we meet and spoke to Lori about arranging the introduction. It just so happened that Kellie was in town and Lori wanted to visit her friend Rob. Rob called Hannibal and informed him that Kellie was in town and would like to meet. Hannibal in disbelief, initially brushed it off and continued watching the ball game. Rob knowing he had to seize the moment, quickly called Kellie on three way and conferenced everyone in. Kellie with her quick witted humor informed Hannibal that she was going to Rob’s house and that he better be there or he would owe her some gas money because gas was about $4/gallon.
Hannibal and Kellie finally met at Rob’s house on August 25, 2007. Initially if felt like all eyes were on Hannibal and Kellie to see if there were any sparks. Kellie introduced herself to everyone and quickly became a part of the family. Her warm and charming personality helped her fit right in, along with the other guests. As the evening proceeded, everyone was still shocked that Hannibal and Kellie had barely spoken. As a little more time passed and folks began to assemble around the pool, Hannibal and Kellie sat next to each other and began to converse. Next thing we know everyone began to go back inside as if this were a setup. Hannibal and Kellie remained outside and talked for a few hours. Looking back over our shoulders, we could see some of the Brown family and guests looking out the window to see what was happening. This is was where it all started!
