Sweet video shows Ilse Webb crying when she realizes what the gift is.
A grandmother burst into tears when her family surprised her with a pillow made from her late husband's shirt.
Sweet video obtained by T&T Creative Media shows Ilse Webb, who lives in Irving, Texas, crying when she realizes what the gift is.
"Papa’s got a shirt like that," she says as she pulls the pillow out of the gift bag. There's a beat and then she shouts, “That is his shirt — oh my God!”
Monique Gibbons came up with the unique idea after seeing that Webb seemed a little sad in the run-up to Christmas.
“Their love story was so beautiful!" Gibbons said. "She is without doubt the strongest woman I’ve ever met.”
Webb's husband, Bobby, died in 2008 from pancreatic cancer.
