“We’re family now.” Says it all.

"We're family now." This is America. This is human kindness.

That boy is blessed with an incredible gift 😢

I hope I live long enough to watch Jude's career happen and the whole world hears him play,

This man’s gift to Jude defines the epitome of Love!❤️❤️

I read about the symptoms of autism and one stuck out in particular: obsessive interests. This child appears to have that, and it manifests itself on the piano. I also did a bit of research on Mozart. He had an array of psychiatric conditions, yet he is perhaps the greatest composer in history. In a creative lifetime spanning only 30 years Mozart composed more than 600 works. The human brain is powerful, fascinating and mysterious.

😩The way that boy was playing those keys as if he's an old jazz, blues, soft rock or even classical musician, touched me deep down in my spirit!! And the fact that he taught himself is GENIUS!!🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽 Edit: With all the incredible stories I've been seeing and hearing about, at this point, I'm beginning to think that WE'RE the ones that are "autistic", not the children & people that's been diagnosed.😩😔🤷🏽‍♀️

Best story ever🥹🥲❤❤❤ “we’re family now” 😭😭😭 Beautiful 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

So much good in this story. So much. But, one point stands out: the beauty of America is that kindness transcends race, culture, background…our differences. Yes, we’ve had and are experiencing tough times. We have a lot of work to get better. But, this story reminds me of the inherent goodness that makes our country unique. It’s so special and inspiring. It’s what it means to be an American.

It would be an honor to be that man’s friend👏

Bill is a living angel that blessed that boy with the ultimate instrument. Bills dad is smiling down from heaven for sure. ❤

This is beyond love Beyond compassion this shows the glory of God

We need more People filled with Love instead of Hate Filled Bigots. Bless his Soul. 😭

As the grandmother of a 14 year old grandson on the lower functioning end of the autism spectrum, this makes my heart sing and makes me tear up. Not only did this gentleman gift this special, blessed and talented young man with a piano, he truly cared about this child and furthering his talent. After my grandson was officially diagnosed with autism around 3-4 years of age, I kept of course hoping he would start developing on the higher end of the spectrum and maybe show an awesome talent such as this young man, but he did not. He will speak only the words that he knows for the things he wants (food items, his fave animated movies) and doesn’t not talk in conversation. He does understand basic phrases and commands (“Jack, give me a hug” or “Jack, give me sugars”). It took me some time to get over the fact that he will not develop further, but slowly God has made me realize just how special Jack is in his own world and own way. I’ve come to realize that he is severe enough to just enjoy and be happy and NEVER EVER know the hurt of people looking at him strangely or children (and sadly adults too) making fun of him. He is truly a gift from God, a blessing and a beautiful human, as we all are.

I am adopted from birth and this story makes me cry every time

That boy brought something back from a past life. Absolutely mind blowing that he can play like that, and Love it. Gifted is an understatement. 🎶

"It's a miracle."

Thank you Father, Son, and Samaritan for sharing your beautiful story. The world needs more of these kind acts.

This is one of the most beautiful stories of God and Love that I’ve ever seen

That kind man Bill says the boy was sent from God. I agree, but I also think that Bill and the soul of his late father are messengers from God too. A living angel that blesses a young boy with a grand piano. This boy is special but Bill is just as special too! ❤

What a touching, beautiful story. "We are family!" Says it all ! Bless this kind, generous man with years of tuning this Grand piano and time with this beautiful family. I can't wait to see where Jude goes!!! Bravo 👏!

This made me cry 😢 What a beautiful news story ❤️ He says, "It's a miracle." What a special little boy. "It is better to give than to receive." I hope he learns to play Amazing Grace 🎶 How sweet the sound. Thank you! 😊

What a amazing young man and The Man with A Great Heart ♥️

That child’s playing literally made the hairs on my arms stand up. And then he says it’s a miracle. I normally don’t go in for that sort of thing, but his playing just might change my mind. His talent is stunning.

Bill loves this child's soul, and that's such a beautiful thing.

I'm so glad he got noticed😘❣️

I love stories like this...makes me believe In the best of humanity

That wonderful man just showed the lil man the world. He’s going to be playing in front of crowds all over the world.

Dang I guess I'm crying now. What a lovely story ❤️

That there is a Godly love. Caring for others first before your own needs and wants! Wow. What an example to all of us!

I can relate to him I'm on the autism spectrum and it's different from the piano I play guitar

Thank you Jesus ✝️ , for this young kid... hope he grows to praise you in every way..

I absolutely love this story. I hope that Jude's story will inspire good will and love.

What a wonderful story. That child is one miracle.

Autism! What an absolute gift it can be! Prodigy!!!! ❤❤❤

I’m not crying.. okay I’m crying 🥰 with joy!

You can see the look on the father’s eyes he’s overwhelmed by the gesture

Talented boy Wonderful man They both have great gifts

Wow...Praise God for this precious child...!!! He is so adorable

As someone who is working with Special needs young children l. I always believe no one is stupid. Everyone learned differently. That young man proves my point.❤

What a blessing for everyone involved. Plus, the beauty of African culture is respect for your Elders. This man will not be tossed aside as he gets older. He will be loved and cared for by his extended family. Warehousing Elders is an American cultural trait...

GOD Bless you Bill, and that wonderful young man and his family 💕

Great message for our troubled world.

beside his talent, the kid also has great attitude.. he could be big one day

Coming from somewhere beyond, beyond special, Mozart level, a miracle ✨️ Yes indeed ! And soooo sweeeet 💕 Ghana Miracle Sweetheart 🥰😍🤩 Love from Germany Hugs to the piano Men 🫂 🤗 👐 🎹🎵 !

If we need more people in America like this it would be much much better spread some love

Just failed to hold my tears!

Bill Magnuson...just amazing generosity! 🤗

This was a wonderful story, we need more of things like this to fuel our souls.

Best wishes to the little boy, his family and the generous man

There is still hope in humanity as can be seen from Steven. You are already blessed with a big heart but msy still God bless you more and more, Steve!

The kind of story i needed today

MORE STORIES LIKE THIS MORE OFTEN. PLEASE. I'm fed up with hearing about War or crime and all political things even about court cases and the whole crime and punishment kind of side of things. Need more stories like this way more often in our lives.

The expression of joy on this young boy’s face when he plays music is precious, priceless.

IM CRYING FROM THE GOODNESS OF THIS STORY! why cant there be more of this!

This is beautiful. Should be viral by now.

Beautiful souls, young and older....blessed of our Heavenly Father, enjoined in His Love.

A special and gifted child. A special man with a big heart.

Love, in it's purest form

I needed to see this. I should keep my eyes and ears open for opportunities to help in this way. And to buy Jude's recordings In the future.

I think gifts and souls make the round again to inspire us.
