'Game of Thrones' actors send 88-year-old fan in hospice care well wishes before her death
Actors from "Game of Thrones" sent greetings and well wishes to an 88-year-old hospice patient in Rhode Island.
The Providence Journal reports that Claire Walton's caretakers at HopeHealth in Providence reached out to the cast.
HopeHealth said 10 actors, including Liam Cunningham, who plays Davos Seaworth, Miltos Yerolemou and Josef Altin, sent messages.
The hospice care provider posted a Facebook video of Walton watching the video messages.
“We’re thinking of you and sending you all (of) our love, and I hope this message brings a smile to your face,” Yerolemou said.
“I hope you’re fit enough to watch the battle,” Cunningham said. “I wish you the very best. I hope your days are not bad and I hope you can manage. Take care!”
“Someone said you’re a really big fan of ‘Game of Thrones,’ so I just wanted to make this video and send it to you and just send you my love and well wishes,” Altin said. “Enjoy this Sunday. It’s going down!”
Walton, a lifelong Rhode Islander, wanted to watch the third episode of the show's final season before she died. It aired Sunday and included a long-awaited battle scene.
HopeHealth said Walton watched the episode. She died Monday afternoon.
HBO's epic fantasy show set a ratings record Sunday night.
