Man Meets Great-Great-Granddaughter

Cadance’s parents really wanted her to get to know her precious great, great-grandfather.  They knew his time on this earth was short. And they wanted to record a video where he meets his great-great-granddaughter so she could have it in the years to come.

Under the video, her parents wrote that he had finally awakened after being asleep for quite some time. They added, “First time she has met him. He woke up and wanted her to sit with him. It was so precious. We may not have him much longer and I want her to have something to remember him by.”
