'Elvis' made a surprise appearance at Denver International Airport for Alma Sewell's sendoff

DENVER - Travelers at Denver International Airport got a surprise on Monday morning when "Elvis" and a group of dancers suddenly started performing in the main terminal.

The surprise show was put on for 87-year-old old Alma Sewell. Sewell was at DIA Monday morning for her dream trip to tour Graceland in Memphis, Tennessee.

Sewell became an Elvis fan in the 1950s while living in Bermuda with her husband who served in the United States Navy.

Sewell's husband was relocated to Memphis, but Alma never visited Graceland.

On this trip back to Memphis, Sewell will visit Graceland, stay at the Heartbreak Hotel and get a private tour of the National Civil Rights Museum in Memphis where she will be interviewed to create an archive of her experiences as an African American woman living in the segregated south during the Civil Rights Movement.

Sewell's trip is being paid for by Wish Of a Lifetime, a group that fulfills the life-enriching wishes of deserving seniors.
