Chapter One: Susan's Early Life & Early Singing Career
It was an early spring morning in the year of 1931. The date was May 10th, and Mr. and Mrs. Williams were expecting their third child, a baby girl. They named her Susan Anne Williams. To their dismay, Susan was not near as bright as her two sisters, Audrey and Elizabeth, but when it came to singing songs, she had an angelic voice! Susan had the voice that sounded like a thousand angels were rejoicing in the Heavens! When it came time for Church every Sunday morning, Mrs. Williams always had little eight year old Susan up there on stage singing with the choir. But amazingly, little Susan could overshadow the entire choir with her voice! If Susan was singing, you may as well just melt away in your seat! She could sing that great!
As the seasons passed away, Susan went off to high school, and began to pursue her singing career even farther! She was always in choir and band classes in her high school, and was always on time! But to the teacher and students dismays, she would always be the best student in the entire class of over one hundred students! On report card day, Susan's mother and father were called in to their daughter's music classroom by her teacher, Mr. Small. He told the parents that their daughter Susan had the most amazing singing talent that he had ever seen or heard! She sounded so good, that he told them that perhaps one day, Susan would have a golden record deal! Her parents were so excited to hear the great news that they immediately scheduled Susan some meetings with at least five record companies in the entire city of Nashville!
But at every meeting when Susan would show up, the entire staff would kindly show the little lady to the door. They always said the same things to her. They always told her that the do wop and rock and roll music industry was no place for a young lady to be singing! But Susan never gave up, for she had a powerful thing that none of those men had! It was a big and powerful thing called faith in God!
