Garth Brooks Gives This Mom The 'Most Memorable Birthday' Ever

April 15, 2016

At a recent concert, Garth noticed a woman in the audience with a sign that read "Can you sing 'Mom' for my Birthday?"

After he sings "Happy Birthday" to Sophie, he asks if she's a mom -- he was not prepared for her response.

Sophie tells Garth she lost her son, Antoine, at 3 years old. Garth let her know her baby is in Heaven, and sang the beautiful song directly to her.

After a fan uploaded the video to YouTube, Sophie wrote this in a comment:

"The most memorable birthday I could ever ask for! Thank you Garth Brooks, Gary for taking me to the show for my birthday, to the fan who took this video (I could't even remember half of what happened. I was so stunned!) and to Antoine for showing up on my birthday in a spectacular way! I had requested to Antoine and God in a prayer before the show that Garth sings this song for me especially. I never imagined it would turnout to be such a divinely well orchestrated moment! Garth Brooks is nothing short of a class act. That is what I love the most about him, the quality of his heartfelt lyrics, his genuine love for his fans and of course, his God given talent.

Antoine left us on September 23rd, 2011. He was only 3 and 1/2. Fly away precious little Antoine, until we meet again Angel!

<3 Much Love, Sophie xoxo"
