Granger Smith

Smith's newly released t-shirt to honor his son River has raised funds to the hospital that tried to save the child's life.

The proceeds will go to the hospital that gave him such wonderful care.

"We can't even imagine what you guys are going through right now."

The singer is asking for donations to Dell Children's Medical Center in the 3-year-old's name in lieu of flowers.

River Kelly Smith died after a tragic accident.

Grab the tissue!

Grab the tissue!

He's trying to bring awareness to a subject that's very close to his heart.

This is his most personal project to date, focusing on the lives of five brave heroes.

Although he experienced a terrifying setback, Smith admits the incident puts everything in a new light for him.

What a horrifying picture.

These two don't need to act at all.

It happens like that, doesn't it?

"I sing this song every night, but never to the girl I actually wrote it about ... until now," he says.
