Alan Frew and his '80s band Glass Tiger surprised one of their biggest fans with an impromptu serenade at an Alberta seniors' home.

Staff at the Pleasant View Lodge, in Mayerthorpe, Alta., say the Canadian hitmakers stopped by after learning that 95-year-old Jean Savage regularly listened to a CD of their music.

Accompanied by a piano and backing vocalist, Frew steps forward at one point to hold both of Savage's hands while she beams. Krysik says a staff member contacted the band when she learned they were set to perform in the nearby town of Whitecourt, and told them about a very special fan at the seniors' home.

"Her face when I approached her was beyond priceless and we shared the biggest hug," says Frew says in a Facebook post.

Spruce Grove city council passes motion to explore ban on conversion therapyJust do it. Nothing to explore. Just ban it. My kids was perfect the day he was born, the day before he told us he was gay and remains perfect to this day. More jumping on irrelevant bandwagons. Instead of communities banning conversion therapy, they need to take this on a bigger scale & make new laws and charge the churches responsible for this. Banning it in a community stops nothing, they will just cross over into the next town
