In a beautiful act of public kindness, a restaurant sings ‘Amazing Grace' for a dying veteran who chose their establishment for his last meal out.
When one elderly gentleman named Lyle Chauvin got the news that he was very ill and didn't have that much time left, he wanted to make sure that he could have at least one last meal at his favorite restaurant with his family. That restaurant was called The Little Big Cup and it is located in Arnaudville, Louisiana.
