A Chatham-Kent resident is taking the Internet by storm, and she doesn't even own a computer.
A video of 84-year-old Fern Bezanson playing a piano at Value Village in Chatham on Wednesday, November 7th went viral over the weekend.
"Sometimes I do things like that, I just sit down and try them out, play a couple tunes," said Bezanson. "I just want to bring joy into people's lives."
