In the 30-second clip, Alex appeared wearing a blue shirt and black pants holding a little white guitar, singing the lyrics of “Remember Me,” and playing his instrument as good as a four-year-old boy could.

Alex was in front of the altar that his parents created for their late daughter, Ava. Samir, from San Antonio, Texas, confessed that Alex did so on his sister’s first birthday and that he didn’t know everything was being recorded.

As Simple Most reported, the girl passed away on May 1, 2017, only four months after she was born, due to kidney disease.

One of the most astonishing aspects of the video was the song Alex selected to sing as “Remember Me” is about keeping the memories of those people love alive no matter how long they have passed away.

“Remember me / Don’t let it make you cry / For even if I’m far away, I hold you in my heart,” were only some of the lyrics that Alex could be heard singing during the short clip.

THE VIDEO WENT VIRAL

ANOTHER TOUCHING TRIBUTE

A bride who lost her father to pancreatic cancer just before her wedding received a wonderful surprise from her brother who recorded a song and played it for her during the father-and-daughter dance.

Instead of the bride’s father, her grandfather, brothers, and father-in-law danced with her during the beautiful and touching moment.
