Two years ago, in an incredible season finale for fan favorite Duck Dynasty, the Robertson family announced that they would be giving the gift of a home to an old family friend who had fallen on difficult times.
The episode, aptly titled Home For The Holidays, was a tear-jerker indeed. Even Phil was reduced to tears as he delivered a Christmas prayer.
Via TVOM:
Duck Dynasty has had a lot of uplifting and emotional episodes, but this one may have bested them all. The Robertson’s really outdid themselves with this Christmas-themed episode.
When the family was having their Christmas gift exchange, Willie announced that they would be giving an old family friend a new home for Christmas because she had fallen on hard times. They’ve known the woman for the better part of 40 years, and they felt that was the least they could do for her. Everyone in the family got on board with the project right away, and knowing the Robertson’s, I knew it would be a success.
…
My heart filled up as they told stories of growing up around this woman for whom they bought a house. Every single member of their family didn’t even question the gift, and went right to work to make it special for this family. They bought a beautiful modular home, built a deck, and made everything look great before the big reveal. Mrs. Lewis was brought to tears by the gesture, and soon after she brought Phil and Kay to tears during their prayer, all because of her humility and graciousness. It was really an incredible thing to witness. Phil doesn’t seem like a cry guy, so I could tell that this was a special thing that happened. I teared up a little myself, and that doesn’t happen too often in Duck Dynasty.
