Luke Bryan Puts a Smile on the Face of 88-Year-Old Fan With Terminal Illness

Before his concert in Kansas City, Mo., on July 21, Luke Bryan shared a memorable meet-and-greet with one of his biggest fans, 88-year-old Francis Stanaway, who is battling a terminal illness.

Decked out in her “Shake It For Me, Luke” sweatshirt, not only did Francis get the chance to chat with Luke and attend his concert, but she also took part in a photo op that put a big smile on her face.

NBC news affiliate KSHB Channel 41 picked up the story and even asked Francis if she thought Luke was a good looking guy. She immediately responded, “Oh heavens, yes.”

Crossroads Hospice through the Gift of a Day program helped make Francis’ meet-and-greet possible.
