In a video released for Mother’s Day by Birmingham Mayor Randall Woodfin, his mother Cynthia Woodfin-Kellum talks about the sadness of losing her own mother to COVID-19.
“I’m not going to act gloomy on Mother’s Day,” Woodfin-Kellum said. “What I’m going to do is I’m going to honor her memory.”
She also talked about letting Randall’s older brother, Ralph, pick his name, to keep him from being jealous. Ralph picked “Randy,” but she convinced him to make it Randall in case the little brother ever ran for an important office like president, she said.
