President Donald Trump could not make Denver Moore’s birthday party in person, but did the next best thing — he sent a video message to the 104-year old World War II veteran.

The Ohio resident became a TikTok sensation in March when he invited the president to his birthday party.

“President Trump… I’m gonna be 104 in May, and I’m inviting you to my birthday party in Canal Fulton,” he said. “I got to vote for you again, and I hope I can vote for you some more.”

And even though Trump is traveling overseas, he sent a video message that was delivered to Moore by Rep. Michael Rulli (R-Ohio), Fox News reported.

“Hi, Denver!” Trump said in the video. “I want to wish you a very happy 104th birthday from your all-time favorite president. That’s me, Donald Trump.”

“And I’m sorry we weren’t able to get to your party. I would love to get to your party, but I’m working on Russia, Ukraine, China, and all sorts of other places, and I know you want us to do well,” the president continued. “But I want just to thank you for your incredible service to our nation and for your support for making America great again. A very, very special man you are, and happy birthday.”

Trump has been touring the Middle East, including the United Arab Emirates.  He was the first U.S. president to travel there in about 20 years.

Moore lives at Danbury Senior Living facility in Massillon, just south of Cleveland. 

After watching the video, Moore joked, “Couldn’t happen to a nicer guy,” referring to himself as Trump fulfilled his birthday wish.

Rulli said he was “struck not only by the incredible milestone of his life but also by his deep sense of patriotism and service.”

“I was even more surprised to learn that this remarkable WWII veteran was a resident at a facility right in my district,” he said.

Rulli lauded the Trump administration in what it did to make Moore’s dream come true.

“President Trump and his team went above and beyond, recording a special video message just for him. I am incredibly grateful to the compassionate team at Danbury Senior Living, who worked hand in hand with my office to ensure Mr. Moore’s birthday was truly unforgettable,” Rulli said.

“His life and service are a testament to the spirit of our nation, and I’m proud we could celebrate him in such a meaningful way,” he said.

Moore served in the U.S. Army Air Corps during WWII. He then worked for the U.S. Postal Service. He raised three children with his late wife, Thelma Lee. She died in 2022 at age 95.
