They didn’t come to serenade him, they came to worship with him. God is so good blessings to his family.
As a woman fighting cancer myself, this brought tears to my eyes. Once cancer crops up you look at things differently and this was something that no words could express for him. And realizing how much you meant to people ....... no words. So glad you posted this!
God bless you🙏❤
God love you alwaysssss
Praying for you!
Paying for you
Kids get more emotional than adults and such a wonderful gathering doesn't surprise me.
I'm not a religious person, but THAT was very beautiful and the tears are rolling down my face.
Its time to take a look.
Just so you know G-d isn't religious, religion is death ,faith isn't religion ,I don't go Christian events or a church but I have my version of faith .
@@acavell6184 I agree with you. I believe in something more than our existence.
That's the holy spirit
agreed
I looked this up and sadly, he passed away just ten days after this. He seemed like a good man and loved by many ♥️🕊️
That's really sad, but one can feel the love flowing to him. He was not alone.😭🥲
That you took the time to look him up showed you cared.
Thank you💞😥
Praise God...they were able to give him his "flowers" now & he lived to see & enjoy it, which most people don't. God bless their hearts 👏🏾
Sorry to hear that. May he live on in young teachers who want to make a difference.
In March of 2021 my brother battled cancer. His church choir showed up at his home and sung to him. Sadly he lost the battle and passed away just a week later. However it really moved him a great deal.
So sorry for your loss
My condolences for your loss. Obviously he is a much loved person. Know that he will always be in your hearts.
He was truly loved
Who could dislike this video?!!! My mom is battling cancer 🥺 but we have faith that she will beat it 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 love this video!!!❤️❤️❤️
Maria, prayers for your mother, and you too! Keep the faith...
I don't know your Mom but God does. I will be sending up prayers for her and your family. He'll know who I'm talking about.
I wish her good health and speedy recovery ... god bless you mom
Maria Isabel Rodriguez keep on praying dear God is going to see you through. I have bitten cancer twice. If God can do it for a wretched like me He can do it for all. Sending hugs, love and prayers.
I always do the percentages on these. It currently stands at, at most, 0.77% dislikes, against at least 99.23% likes.
you cannot get more confirmation than this that you made a difference while you were here on earth. God will say "Job well done my good and faithful servant"..
This made me cry not ashamed to say it. I lost my dad last year to cancer as I held him in my arms at the hospital. We got told just over two weeks now that my mum's got cancer. But sadly there isn't anything they can do for her as she's weak she hasn't got the best health and never has done bless her. I looked into donating my kidney but she wouldn't survived the op. They said.. She doesn't deserve this nor does anyone. My heart goes out to people that either lost someone or are dealing with it in the family or themselves.
His legacy is obviously very profound. Well done my good and faithful servant.
Praise the lord for his goodness towards you....You are blessed to be a blessing.🙏🙏🙏🙏
Why is it I can never seem to watch a video like this without tears. May God look after this wonderful man and his family during his time of need.
Because you have empathy and a good heart.
I'm crying like a baby. I wish sometimes I didn't feel so deeply for the pain of others it's a gift and a cruse.
Couldn't stop crying. We have so much love each of us to share. Let go of anger and embrace hope and kindness to one another.
Amen....Amen. Life is too short, no room for hate and grudges.
@@nikkireese4700 it breaks my heart to see and feel so much anger and hate. A simple act of kindness is a gift better shared
I concur with your sentiment I also wept.
I am a blubbering mess. i agree with you 100% I was overcome with how many people made it there to show him just how many respect him. And his life mattered
@@casperboo2002 what so many feel is they don't matter. We all matter. So important to share a smile with a homeless person or that someone who looks beaten down. In my darkest moments a strangers smile made me feel valued.
No matter how many times I watch this, I cry like a baby. What a wonderful gift to give this man who clearly is a wonderful person to have 400 people come out to support him. God bless them all.
Hello how are you doing 😊☺️😊
Flowers grow from the darkest of storms.
How could anyone dislike this video? It doesn’t matter what religion you follow or if you don’t follow one at all, this was about the love these beautiful students and teachers had for this man and that should make any heavy heart a little bit lighter.
I agree
I'm a 27 year old construction worker and this has me blubbering like a baby. That was a good man, if that many people wanted to come and sing for him.
these children showed an act of kindness and tenderness that would've brought Jesus to proud tears. May we all learn from this example of goodness.
Well said Sir
Amen
What kind of People would dislike this video? My mom is a 3 time breast cancer survivor so I have the utmost respect for patients & survivors. Last time she had cancer was 20 years ago she turned 85 in April love you mom!!!!

He passed away, but he’s with the Lord now. No more pain, tears and suffering ❤️
That is the most beautiful tribute to a great, well loved and respected teacher. I got lumps in my throat watching and listening to these amazing pupils. I'm sure the teacher wld hv been lost for words too. God Bless you all and the teachers family. 😍💝🙏
It is wonderful to be supported by people who care. God is always doing amazing things in the hearts of His children. May we live to honour Him in our lives
Why are people cutting onions in my room

Nothing is impossible with Jesus..lift up your illness to Him He already overcome the world..John 16:33
I was sick around 2017 shortly after my Mum passed away. Some of my students came to see me at the hospital. 2-3 of them came inside the ward and I was told that some were told to stay outside. So I can relate. God bless Teachers.
It's all a good man wants...
Is to be remembered, to be missed.
To leave something behind.
That is humanity as God intended it to be..
Tears ...oh God ..how beautiful
There is so much love in the world .
Couldn't help it, started crying.
May his soul rest in peace. God bless all those who turned up to his house and sing. That was moving.
Whoever disliked this video you are actually the worst person go see a doctor
Love is the tie that binds us...
Our body may dying, but our soul and heart never die because of love of God
tears are in my eyes....
God bless you all
I am really glad they did that for him do he knows how appreciated and loved he is
This is what the world should be full of love. Time is so short and uncertain for mankind. That we waste energy on the wrong things. Much 🥰 to all. Beautiful video
Those that disliked this video hang your heads in shame and let’s hope you don’t go through what he is going through this man is stronger than you all are
I can’t stop crying watching this video!❤️🙏
Dear God, what can that have meant to that man. Thank you to every soul that performed. You should be blessed!, and I am not a believer but that was an act of pure love and humanity. Thank you all!
We make a joyful noise unto the Lord. Well done guys.
What a beautiful gift to be given
Amen!
God said to love your neighbor and they did that for him. He had done that for so many too
This is beautiful how wonderful. The school the students you are wonderful beautiful careing young people going to a lovely gentleman who has got this nightmare illness.

Way to go students honoring the teacher

May his soul continue to rest in perfect peace. So sad
This is what being a good teacher gets you.
Ben life is made up of perfect moments this is one of those moments bestowed upon you for all your kindness and dedication to your students. God rewards the brave and God was showing off when you were made Ben.

This was a very beautiful performance by Mr Ellis's students and a fitting tribute by the students of Christ Presbyterian Accademy to their teacher Mr Ellis.
THIS IS JUST INCREDIBLE...TBE POWER WE HAVE IN OUR HEARTS PEOPLE...IF YOUR READING THIS I LOVE YOU ❤🙌🙌🙌🌹
Being a teacher watching so many of his adoring students do something this beautiful for him, must have made him feel like his life was was accomplished. RIP you must have been an amazing man for so many to show you their love.
Oh yeah, kindness and love- universal but this time, eternal!

That what you call respect, beautiful gesture by the Teachers and students hope that wonderful man makes a full recovery
