Howard Stein was killed by a driver who was programming her GPS, three months before his first grandchild, Evie, was born. He will never know the joy of being a grandfather and he and Evie will never share the special love that exists between grandparent and grandchild.

The Tree House video gives us a glimpse of what their relationship might have looked like. In it, Howard and Evie bond as she helps him create a backyard treehouse for her. We see Howard using his carpentry skills to build that treehouse and little Evie smiling and handing her grandfather his tools. After it is completed Evie provides a very special welcome to her grandfather that brings tears to his face and likely, to those who view the animation. Watch the video below.
