- In this installment of our series, "A More Perfect Union," we take a look at an unexpected but powerful friendship. See how an 82-year-old widower was touched by an innocent question of a 4-year-old in the canned food aisle of a grocery store, just when he needed it most. Steve Hartman reports.
I believe she was sent by his wife.
I like that.
The dead have no such power - only God or one of His heavenly angels.
@@misst.e.a.187 on his wifes behalf maybe.
@@misst.e.a.187 How about we just let people have this moment?
@@starcraftflyer17 nope. if you truly believe in God you must believe everything happens by God's will. that's the basic of faith.
Sad update to report: He passed away on February 10th. He got his hug in from Nora the day before😢
Tara Murphy I think it’s beautiful. Sad he passed yes but at the same time I’m happy he spent his last days with love in his heart. I’m especially happy he is now reunited with the love of his life.
that's sad, but i am happy he got a last hug in. (also, yes, i'm convinced his wife decided "you need to go out on a HAPPY note if your heart doesn't melt for this kiddo you aren't the dude i married" and helped arrange their first meeting and gave him a big hug and kiss when they met back up in heaven/valhalla/etc.)
Nooo 😭😭😭 but so glad he had this angel with him until the end 💖💔💖😭🥺
That's awful. But on the bright side.....he spent the last of his time on earth with the love he deserved. Nora was definitely a gift from his wife and God. I hope Nora never ever forgets how much this meant to him
@@elizabethevenson6110 You took it to the Ragnar Lothbrook Vikings level! I was surprised to see Valhalla in the post.
His wife sent little Norah as her angel from above with so much love ❤️
She knew her mission when she saw him in the grocery store ☺️ How wonderful that he now feels he has purpose again 🥺🙏🏻🙌🏻
Yes ❤
❤❤how I see it
Exactly🤍💛
I wish my husband would send me an angel !
God bless this child and her mother, for blessing this gentleman in his time of need. What a beautiful story!
No doubt God had a hand in this. This is divine. The old man's heart was healed of his misery and he died peaceful.
He said he had no purpose to live and now he says "watching her grow up"
Britto Bharathy ...she gave him a purpose. He left a legacy..in both this heartwarming story,& a legacy in her heart once he passes..I have a feeling he will hold on for many more years than he was supposed to..
@@karencarney7595 Yes Karen 🤗
Britto Bharathy It is indeed everything ❤️
This touched me so deep.. Kids are just so kind hearted.. How beautiful
Dan's wife reincarnated within Nora beautiful!
Somebody hug the interviewer, dude looks so depressed af
I think it's his haircut.😂
Oh my God. I was tearing up as I watched the video and then I read this comment and instantly bursted into laughter.
@@myboyz9391
😂😂😂
He looks like he does so much volume
I am laughing!!!
I’m so glad that mom made sure to keep their connection alive and let them have a friendship. That mom is a good momma and she has an amazing daughter. That little girl is an earth angel!
She really just chose her own grandpa and friend for life
“ he does have grandchildren of his own..... but they’re all *grown and gone* ” damn that part hit me
This mans grandkids need to step up.....what kind of people are they....
The ones that wish they still had their grandparents around don't & the ones that are bless with still having them around don't know how to appreciate it. 😥
Agree, I feel nowadays young people are not that respectful to the elders...sometimes I wonder why, maybe different era or wrong teaching ? I dont know.
@@oldschool3234 Soooo very true!!! Myself included!!
I was at the bedside of my grandma when she breathed her last breath, yet i was never there for her is what my family said. :( I don't give up on anyone.
The grandpa unfortunately passed away last month at the age of 86. May his beautiful soul Rest In Peace.
Ben Ramirez 😔
Oh that's sad 😔 rip
Ben Ramirez what a gorgeous person and that goes to both
Ben Ramirez I am so sorry
There is nothing like the hug from a child. Nothing.
I remember my “old person” I was 14 though. Her name was Ruth and she had a inoperable brain tumour, but I loved sitting in church with her and giving her cuddles. I would sit and cry with her. When she passed I had already moved, but it broke my heart when I found out, I made sure to go visit her husband at church. I do really miss her, and I hope she’s found peace❤️
I met a man like this when I was about 16. I took a new job and was going through a lot and he was just accepting and loving. We’re great friends to this day. Miss him now, gonna shoot him a phone call after watching this.
How is now
what? are you lying............... because there is a flaw in your story...
That is nice
@@Ella-gb7no What is the flaw?...
um he died. how the hell is this person gonna call him, tehy should know this if they actually knew him @@SnackPatrol
His wife came back as a young little soul, to stop him from grieving and suffering
FBI...Yes this comment right here.
I agree it was a hug from his wife which she could no longer deliver in person.
Reincarnation of course..
hamzah zziwa I believe that
Unlike anyone else a child has nothing to gain from a friendship with an older person except love and affection some others may have other motives sometimes financial and take advantage. His wife wanted to protect him so sent an innocent child who could do him no harm.
He died yesterday. I’m happy he didn’t die alone.
I learned of his passing through this comment. I checked their facebook page, and my heart sunk. I am glad that he was loved and happy in his final years.
@@claudettemaria3061 Hi, would you post a link to the facebook page? TY
@@debrabaron6495 m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=3088784338012511&id=2254091541481799 This is the link to the particular post of Mr.Dan's passing.
Honestly, he might've died sooner had he not met Nora. That little girl probably bought him not just a few more years, but a _good_ few more years.
Omg may he rest in peace and all the blessings from all over the world
I feel the wife is reaching through him through this girl. These younglings are so close to heaven. Telling him he’s still loved.
I have lived in my apartment for 2 years now and my son has grown a bond with a little old lady named Ms.Hellen. Ms.Hellen lives alone and doesn't get around well but when Isaac walks in the door I can see her come alive, the smile and energy she gives off is heartwarming and I enjoy going over and visiting her. She gets candy and treats for him she's just such a wonderful woman we love Ms.Hellen ❤️
Keep doing this, could never imagine the kind healing this brings to Ms.Hellen😊
Hey i had a bond with this old lady who lived next door,it was beautiful she used to say i can look at u all day 😂❤
Interviewer: "Were you just waiting to die"
Dan: "Yeah..."
Me: 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Stacey Paget I know bro I felt that
I died inside for him
that just killed me.
First dialogue too.. A couple were burried 😢😢
Ikr! Me as well! So super sweet. God works in mysterious ways!
Reporter: when your wife died you felt like you didn’t have a purpose right??
Old man:yes
Reporter:do you feel like you have one now??
Old man: absolutely!! Nora!! Watch her growing up!
Im crying my eyes out
Meh yeah me too 😥😥😥
Wow the video synced in perfectly as I read this
@@alfie9089 me too, i read this right at the part in video...
Kira Yoshikage I’m gonna stop you from taking more hands
This is to beautiful to watch and the mom said she fall asleep with her photo....OMG.😭😭😭😭
Aww, she knew he needed it. She has a gift. She has an older soul. God Bless Nora. And her new friend.
Hello
This reminds me of my “old person” when I was a kid. His name was Harold and he owned a stand next to my parents at the farmer’s market. Never had any grandkids of his own. I’d show up to his stand every single day with drawings or little craft projects. He eventually died from old age. Miss ya, Harold ❤️
😊
Why no one is talking about this great mother !!!
Such a mother for sure will give humanity such an angel 💔
Absolutely. God knew this child's mom would not inhibit her love.
Yes
No female Angels
@@alexjames2510 / No such thing as Angels? But you believe in Santa Claus?
@@alexjames2510 / No such as Angels?? Ok, you keep thinking that!!!
This little angel gave this man peace. He did not die bitter and empty.
Oh yes. Wife sent her angle. ❤️😊
@@crismahaffeyt8332 God send.👼🏽👼🏽😇
Thousandth like ;)
@@crismahaffeyt8332 what angle would you say his wife sent him? Like a 90° angle or are we talking more obtuse like a 180° angle?
@@paul7339 A cute angle
Angels come in many forms.. she broke through that man’s rough and tough exterior, and just said I’m gonna be kind. The lord puts folks in our lives. The mom allowing the relationship to blossom is amazing
Yes some of them are in the earth and the others in the heaven so as you say Angels come in many forms wa are not alone God Knows
The old man is right she is an angel if it wasn't for that little girl being there he will just end his life She saved his life
Age doesn't matter....friendships bloom in the weirdest places...I met my wife on an elevator
I cried during the vid and then i found your comment and cracked 😂 fate is beautiful
Would love to hear this story.😊
@@IamCHOSEN23 Yess! Me too
Lol I laughed! Idk why but so random lol
@Yeshua is Lord. lol
The mom is an amazing hero in this story too. Making sure her daughter visits every week and keeping their connection alive.
even i was thinking of that 😁
She was and helped Nora too.
AMEN
I feel like she’s doing it for the old man, which shows even more her genuine empathy
I love it!!!
A reminder to respect our elders, not forget them.
Good parenting. Sweet child.
His wife sent that angel 💕 its like his wife wants him to enjoy life from a childs point of view😘😍😭
Babyy Honeyy Yes!
God is amazing. He knows what we need whenever we don't. 😊
OMG! Thats what I said also😢😭❣🙏🏽
Absolutely
This is so beautifully said..
I don’t know why, but I have the feeling his wife sent Nora into his life…. Cryinggg🥺
That’s exactly what I think. His wife sent that little angel to him.
@@ogler7462
She absolutely DID. In MY mind, there's no doubt about it.
Yep!!! I said the same thing ❤️
@@ogler7462 That's what I think too.. or even better she is Nora reincarnated and she finally found him again :)
I’m not crying. You’re crying
Her mom's such a wonderful lady. No mystery where Nora has got her sweet heart from.
As an "old person" I dont get many hugs as I would love to receive. Often when I'm at the grocery store I see kids with there Moms shopping and I make a point to speak. Seeing a child smile can make my day.❤
Hello how are you doing
I’d be so ashamed if I was one of his kids or grandkids seeing this 🤦🏻♀️
maybe, but there is also something special about little ones. His grown grandkids have probably lost a bit of the magic.
In the spiritual world of God, there is no comparison. Everyone is a child of God and unique in His image, with its very own value, destine and right to be. Just because Nora is such a beautiful blessing angel that she truly is, so special and heart melting in her way, doesn't diminish the value of others.
TRUE
True that..!!
Nothing to be ashamed of. Gtf
It’s such a shame that his actual children and grandchildren are gone and not there for him :(
Nora is his new grand baby! ❤️❤️
@Amity...OMG!!! I said the same thing before reading the comments below. Those that forget or neglect to take care of their elderly members ESPECIALLY THEIR OWN FAMILY(Parents and if possible their grandparents) have no compassion must have miserable souls. Also, they need to have reality check and realize they too will be elderly themselves one day. What goes around comes around.
Dan's kids and grandkids are too busy for him so Nora was sent to him. I hope he lives to see her into her teens. So sad that his wife passed away and wasn't there too. She would have loved every minute of this.
amity fr
amity maybe his kids and grandkid’s visit him often too, who knows !
Sometimes you can be around family and friends who love you, but still be depressed. Sometimes, something unexpected helps you come back from the saddness. I consider why he could be alone, but instead if feeling sad and speculating about why he was alone, I'm glad he has friends who make him light up with joy now. My point, don't be sad, be happy they're all happy now 💖
Beautiful story. So many elderly are ‘forgotten’
I shed a tear. I am glad for grandpa to now know he has purpose in life. The feeling of wanting/ waiting to die is now gone. Thanks to NORA.
You have purpose in life my father. I am 66
Man it’s only 10 AM. It’s too early for me to be crying like this.
Morgan D me too!! Omg tears is just running down my face
Morgan D it’s 2am right now!
It's never too early to cry to something as sweet as this.
So your emotions are easily manipulated?
Honest_Bishop No, it’s just that I have these qualities known as ‘compassion’ and ‘empathy’. Look them up, since you seem to be unfamiliar with them.
When babies are raised with love, they ooze it. Amazing parenting
Yes good parenting can play a part
FACTS!! Exactly
Yes 🥰
This is so true and truly what humanity should strive for,I'm so touched to tears
Beautifully said! I’m gonna write that down! Thanks
How beautiful! Seeing this again, and still brings back a smile. Bless this little girl, who gave this “Old Person” a new reason to live.
That was a beautiful story. I am 53 years old, and every time my neighbors' kids see me. It's starts out as HI MISSY, then they run up, and its I want a hug. My kids are all grown, and I do have GRAND KIDS, but they all live out of state. So it puts a smile on my face, and I even cry.
Hello how are you doing 😊
Very depressed, but life goes on
@@melissahedgecoth9643 but why? Can we talk more please
So happy this happened for him before he died.
This is why senior homes should be visited by pre-school classes, kindergarten classes, etc. 💙
Of course, how can anything happen to a person after his death
I agree!
Some of the nursing homes are being used with preschool classes in them. The older people are able to interact.
Pets should be in all nursing homes. A dog and a cat. -- in all of them.
@@lilybond6485 I say a 100 dogs and a 100 cats
Norah is definitely a sweetheart, but her mother is amazing as well. She's really making an effort to ensure that her daughter gets to see her new friend every week.
In this day and age, you are so right. Great mum, and a wonderful little angel.
Yes, because the first thing that you learn is don't talk to strangers. And they're over his house, on his lap, etc. It was creepy to me at first. However, some kind of miracle is at play here. Because who will plan "his" funeral and visit with flowers...
@@24KinfO That's so true. Not only was the love of his life gone. But his grandchildren, possibly life long friends. Loneliness is a true demon.
You are so right! Relationships with older people a wonderful thing to help encourage and cultivate for our children. She does deserve a lot of credit, but I do agree the Holy Spirit seems to have been working here. When I was young, in the 1960s, I found the neighborhood "old lady" in both of the towns where I grew up. When my child was little, he also found a special friendship with a neighborhood man. They had much to offer one another!
She is his Angel on earth. ❤
Sitting in my car, eating peanut m&m’s, and crying. This is so touching. I’m so glad he has a friend. Now all they need is a few balloons and a bucket list 🥰
I'm in tears. This is so precious. Nora is an angel.
Phoenix J NYC haha same
I think my eyes went for a swim
Phoenix J NYC her name is very similar to the Arabic word : light (nura)
I'm tearing up too. It's amazing how the simplest gestures of kindness warms our hearts the most.
I think they have met before in a previous life. I believe in reincarnation. The more I see videos like that, the more I believe in reincarnation!
Yeah she is Angel she even sleep off holding the picture of them this is streng and show love, this is the must best love video i ever watch
She's an empath definitely. It's a gift. She could feel his pain in that aisle and comforted him. So sweet.
I think we may be able to read each other, too. But as adults, we hold back too much, and find excuses and "reasons" to not speak our heart and be moved to action.
@Tired Siren
Agreed.
Sparkle LovesYou Absolutely she is an empath but sometimes it seems more like a curse. It runs in my family, my son is also an empath.
She's not an empath or a gift from God, everyone's biology is hardwired to pick up on body language and facial expressions, its why we see faces in inanimate objects like cars. That doesn't make it any less beautiful but you dont have to make stuff up
I too sniff copious amounts of cocaine
i can tell this baby was raised with love.
I'm sure that when your spouse dies, especially for an older person you just feel like your life is over and that nothing can save you, but this is proof that just the love of a child can make everything better.
Children have this 6th sense or something. I've witnessed it twice, where a child randomly goes up to a stranger and hugs them just to later find out that that the person desperately needed some love.
although this may be true, the fact is - she CHOSE him to love! so its adorable either way :)
@@noface____ took words out of my mouth.
@Jock Makay If you're serious, then you are ridiculous, you arent even close to ancient
while not the same story, i was volunteer for recess monitor at elementary school, and had this sweet young lady in kindergarten didn't want to get off playgournd the other teachers told her to follow me across back to teacher waiting, the next day she gave me a hug

Beautiful little girl and so glad she could bring him happiness after losing his wife. Just beautiful
Hello Barbara
How are you doing today?
It's amazing how God gives us what we need when we are just about to give up
A few months ago my four-year-old saw a group of elderly men and women and excitedly yelled, “Mama! Look at all the grandmas and grandpas!” They all got a big kick out of that. 😂
Too cute❤
Adorable
Beautiful!
Oh my goodness, Thats too damn adorable ❤️
God definitely heard him in his time of pain and sends a sweet angel. This little girl is gonna grow up to be sweet and kind.
True a 100% true .. she sent by God..
Amen 🙏🏻
@JONES I hope so for you as well then. Be open, you never know what form blessings will come in.
And what about all the thousands of ppl who die alone? Why does god let them die in suffering?
What a gift from God for that old man!!! ❤
RIP to this sweet old man.
In high school I was assigned to do a WWII paper with an old person for my school newspaper. A neighbor lady in her 80s who had never acknowledged me lived two doors down. When I asked her for an interview, she was ecstatic. We were friends until she died a few years later. I got choked up remembering her watching this video. Thanks.
Paul Burton 🥺❤️
❤❤❤
stay strong
👍
Paul Burton This is amazing! God Bless You ❤️
I cried during this video.. This little girl is a hero.
Diana Pirova my parents are beating me so i am crying too!
She's actually an angel.
Me to I'm crying.now this is so sad but cute
She didn't know it then and still may not 2 years later, but, that gentleman is the reason why she was put on this Earth. It was true fate that they crossed paths.
I cried too.
I had an "old person" when I was 10. He moved into the house next door and I saw him struggling to get a package. I begged my mom to let me help him and we have been very close since then. Everyday I came home from school he was outside ready to say hi to me. We got him a garden for Christmas and I helped him take care of it every day. We started doing vacations together, we did holidays, birthdays, dinners, everything. Its like ther's a hole in my life and he was made to fill that empty space!
This is the sweetest thing that I have ever seen! I believe his wife sent her!!
Hello how are you doing today
YOU CAN ALWAYS TELL IF A CHILD IS BEING RAISED RIGHT WHEN THEY ARE OUT IN PUBLIC BECAUSE IT STARTS AT HOME. SO, I CAN TELL THIS MOTHER IS DOING AN EXCELLENT JOB. #GOODPARENTINGMOTHER
Well said!
Well said and good parenting with lots of love I did cry watching this
@Charity Jones So true. In this interview, one can see that her mother's heart is just as sweet as her precious daughter's. Aaaawwwww. May God allow him to live a looonngg while more, for the sake of this sweet baby girl. Aaaawww. ❤😭❤🙏
I think Nora just has an intuitive mind❤️ God works in mysterious ways

yeah the time with the people we love is special
I just heard he passed away the next day😯😢
Yes yes yes yes .. pls dnt leave them alone .
Susan, no, he didn’t die the next day. Otherwise, there would be no follow up interview.
Also, you can watch the video of announcing his death some time later.
There is a Facebook page called “Norah and Mr. Dan”. Those two are still friends. ❤️

Disturbing
Bryan Sakon i see how u think it’s disturbing but, I don’t think it is. u cute cute btw so amosc 😂😂 emmaa.flynn
It's so sweet!!! She has a bonus grandparent. I wish I had another grandparent. I'm so happy when strangers can become family.
Why is it disturbing?
God is on the move, on the move hallelujah!!!!!!
God is on the move in a mighty way!
Praise the mom, child, and older gentlemen. Such a beautiful story.
So heart warming, beautiful story
I met my “old person” at church when I was Nora’s age. Half the time, we couldn’t get through a sermon without him turning around, looking at me and popping his dentures out as a way to get me to laugh really loud. He’d arrive at church 30 minutes early, wait for me to finish helping my grandma clean up her Sunday school class, and we’d go set up for children’s church. We’d meet after church for lunch. He’d color on the kid’s menu with me. He helped me learn how to read really early on. Help me sound out really big words. Was sure to let me know that I was unstoppable. That I could do ANYTHING.
I’m 25, and my “old person” is gone now. But I could never be sad, because he taught me so much. Certainly taught me that you can have a bit of fun in serious situations. He was the church jokester.
At his memorial, they played a video of him popping out his dentures. Out of the 300 that attended, some giggled, but they were all looking at me. I was the one cracking up. That then lightened the mood, and everyone knew they could actually laugh. His wife looked back at me, mouthing a thank you. I didn’t realize that was a relief she needed in the moment.
Thank you for sharing your story. If I wasn't already in tears from the video, I would be now. God is so good!
Really touching story ❤️
Thank you for your story. What a funny guy. I love kids that age. I miss the kids I wish were still in my life.
@Damien Montero I agree. I love kids in those early years. Miss the ones I thought would be in my life. It's tough.
Such a lovelly story!!!Thank you for sharing!
I'm crying, he died this week
At least he will be with his wife ❤❤
God bless that encounter and everyday after, my grandfather only made it 5 months after my grandmother died.
@@frankieb9444 I cared for an elderly couple where everyone was expecting him to pass first; his wife was was spry and spunky, he was a bit in decline (still had months to years left though). He was a lovable guy, she came off a little standoffish, she had resting bi*ch face. Well, she had a heart attack one night and passed. It was hard for him. They had her funeral in short order, and he started getting all his affairs in order.
2 weeks later he passed away easily, no need for a morphine rotation, he just passed unexpectedly.
He couldn't live without her.
Rip
Now I really convinced that little girl is a legit Angel, send by heaven to ease his passing 😳
Children truly are a great gift from God.
This definitely hits me in the feels. Reminds me of love at first sight. Mom is so wise and wonderful to support and encourage regular visits.
Some of the most transformational relationships I had as a child was with elderly. I didn't have my own grandparents but I remember craving that connection with my own old people.
@Hello there, how are you doing this blessed day?
His wife sent an Angel for him
Angie Wuging God sent his love to him through this beautiful soul of this child
Legit! I believe it!
Angie Wuging Back in the year 2001 an encounter in a swamp started an unlikely friendship between a donkey and an ogre named Shrek. They even made a movie about it.. why is nobody talking about that... 🙄
I love how the interviewer appears to have such deep compassion and sincerity while he is interviewing. You can tell he has a sort of sensitivity about him. Very genuine!
I love it!!!!

Steve Hartman is a legend. Seems like such a great guy
Are u from USA?
He seems like wants to cry
My grandpa for 2 years was in the state this man was in.. He died right before his 70th birthday last year.. I tried my best for him, but he missed her too much. He's with my grandma now, and while my family is much, much smaller, I can rest knowing He's not hurting and missing her anymore. I'm glad this guy found a little buddy to keep him going.
His wife sent an angel to him for whatever reason and it shows God is good God bless them both
I truly believe Nora is definitely the angel that was sent by his wife one last time
Amen to that!
@@ladypain2332 I think God gives us missions to do throughout our lives. This was one of Nora's.

This happened to me last year. I had gotten some bad news from my Dr. and stopped at the store on my way home. A little girl riding past me in the cart reached out and touched my arm. She told her Grandma to stop and reached over and took my hand. I was shocked, she had the biggest angelic grin as she excitedly told me her name was Anna. Well, I couldn't help but smile back and tell her my name. For the next 5 or 6 min she told me all about her life experiences as a 3 year old. She told me jokes, we sang cartoon theme songs right there in the cereal isle of Kroger's. She was so delightful that i'd forgotten my sour mood. Her mom joined us and we discovered we have a lot in common. The whole family have become my friends. Anna comes to play dates with my niece. They will be pirate princesses when they grow up.
Love this, Barbara...hope you are well and continue to see dear little Anna!❤
Great
In 2019, 10 days after I left the hospital after a sucide attempt. Had to get stitches ect and felt so embarrassed. days later I was waking in the grocery store and a little boy looked at me smiled and waved with almost a sad little face I guess cuz I looked so depressed but he waved at me smiling and hopeful with sympathy look like he knew. Idk I almost felt like crying right there.
Thank you for sharing this!
Children have latent psychic abilities and are also inherently kind.
They knew each other in a past life.
I am snot crying. That is so damn sweet!
"Hello old person!" LOL! Don't you know her mom was mortified when she first heard that? You've gotta love kids' honesty!
This story literally made me cry with joy!

Billions dead will see life on a PARADISE EARTH where sickness and death will cease to exist (John 5:28,29 & Psalms 37:9-11)
She knew. His wife delivered a message.
He’s not alone.
This is so wholesome.
I just met a few days ago an 89 year old man ar Mcdonalds, he wanted to talk and had alot to say, I listened and enjoyed every single minute of that conversation
I cried. Nora, I salute you. You are such an awesome child. You have God's blessings. I love you.
Need to give slight correction, God's love...
The little girl was sent by GOD . All in GOD'S timing. Great story
Yes. Absolutely this was our Lord and saviour sending him a reminder that he is not forgotten

@El Señor Spook the alpha and the omega ..ABBA, yehwah ,jesus christ these all names for him . This is my belief .may not be yours and that's your Choice..you free will and all ..no judgement
@El Señor Spook why do people do that? Why can't you let people worship and believe how they feel? It doesn't impact your life for her to worship God. Let people live don't be so miserable!
In the hundreds of Thousands . . .People die everyday and not sent anyone / loneliness is a world-wide epidemic.
This is such an incredible and heartwarming story!
The bond between the old gentleman and the little girl is so touching. I'm crying.
I love that her mom allowed their friendship to grow, as this man needed love in his life.
I just love that little girl so much! She has a real heart of pure gold!
It's just an amazing story!
God bless them both.
This cutie pie deserves a lot of respect and love,hope prevails as humanity excels.
Steve is probably the only reporter I’ve seen have emotions
I think his wife directed that little girl to him to help heal his broken and lonely heart!! What a beautiful story!! 💞
Same she knew he would be broke after she left so she guided this beautiful young girl to him
yes yes yes
Nothing but facts
I believe that 110%
I think so too! What a very touching story. Cried my eyes out.
This hits the spot. That little girl is an angel from above to give this man a happy heart. What a blessing.
This sweet and heartwarming story really made me cry! This lil' girl definitely is an angel on earth. It's amazing to see that a child that young already has such a social intelligence: She immediately noticed that this old man was sad and lonely! Amazing and wonderful at the same time! 😊❤
The power of children and pets can ALWAYS put a smile on someone's face no matter what kind of day their having. This little one gave an old man purpose, a reason to live. That's a lot of power.
We ALL actually have that power! We only have to step out if what’s considered the norm, and do what we feel, the way we did as children! 😀
That is because both children and pets are both untainted by the ugliness of the world so I believe their connection to the spiritual world is still intact

@@theleafandtheelm She didn't state that as a belief...she stated that as a fact....Two very different things. Either you don't understand English or you just assume stuff and jump to conclusions.
