Maria, a former singing and piano teacher in her final days at an Ohio care facility, longed for the music that once filled her life. Joshua Woodard, her former student and now a caregiver at the facility, was determined to grant her final wish.
Maria’s wish was simple: to hear the song “How Great Thou Art” one last time. Joshua, who had known Maria since he was just 9 years old, sang the heartfelt rendition of her favorite song with the lyrics on his phone.
This touching moment was captured on film by Maria’s sister-in-law.
