Josh Turner Grants Wish to Woman With Terminal Illness

Josh Turner Grants Wish to Woman With Terminal Illness

Josh Turner is a stand-up guy. We’ve known that for years, and a story out of Kansas City by NBC affiliate KSHB Channel 41 News further solidifies our stance.

Before his concert at Kansas City’s Uptown Theater last night (March 23), Josh took time for a special meet-and-greet with Kay Ray, a 76-year-old woman battling terminal cancer. Sporting a blue t-shirt that read “Kay Loves Josh Turner,” Kay had been looking forward to the meeting for more than a month, which was arranged by the Gift of a Day program and Crossroads Hospice.

“He gave me butterflies,” Kay said, according to Channel 41. “It was fantastic. It was like a dream come true.”

During his show, Josh dedicated “Long Black Train” to Kay, which just happens to be her favorite JT song.
