    That is by far one of the heart wrenching, tear jerking ads I have seen. Huge thanks for posting.

    Even though some folks don't care for Jhon Denver, I've always liked him and his songs.

    That ad got to me too.

    Dementia is a very cruel disease. My thoughts and prayers go out to those who have to deal with it in their daily lives. It is a sad experience to see someone wasting away on a daily basis.

    Previously : 2008 GS-SM5 (silver), 2009 RS-SE5 (red), 2010 RT-S Premier Editon #474 (black) 2011 RT A&C SE5 (magnesium) 2014 RTS-SE6 (yellow)

    MY FINAL TALLY: 7 Spyders, 15 years, 205,500 miles

    IT HAS BEEN A LONG, WONDERFUL, AND FUN RIDE.

    It really is a great Ad & a great message too, possibly even better than the 2022 Ad with the Widower & his late Wife's Impala; but am I wrong in thinking that there were a few more Ads featuring that same girl, maybe the rest of the family too, & the same Chevy Suburban??

    My forgetory works better these days than it used to, but I reckon I've seen her (& them?) with that same Suburban in at least one other Chevy Ad too, or am I wrong?? Can anyone confirm or deny - it'll bug me not knowing now?!

    Peter, you may be right. It's a commercial for Chevrolet and a creative plan for advertising. I've dealt with a small number of situations involving dementia patients and it's truly sad, but none were ever even close to Chevy's commercial. I liked the Dina Shore commercials.

    Penelope Lou is the main character; currently residing in Australia. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt30413769/

    But, the older girl isn't listed.
