Carrie Underwood made her final Las Vegas show a special one for a longtime fan.

During the closing night of her Reflections: The Las Vegas Residency run at Resorts World Theatre, the American Idol alum reunited with Noel Miller, whom Underwood met through the Make-A-Wish Foundation when Miller was 12 years old.

Over 15 years later, Miller, who has a heart condition, reconnected with the singer ahead of her final residency show on April 12.

Throughout Underwood’s career, she has donated a portion of her ticket sales to a worthy cause. She donated $1 of each Las Vegas residency ticket sold to Make-A-Wish, partnering with the “incredible” foundation.

“They make dreams come true for kids who need it and deserve it who are in some really dark times in their lives,” she told the crowd of Make-A-Wish at her final show before introducing Miller as her song partner.

“For every person in every seat, that represents a dollar that’s going to the Make-A-Wish Foundation.” Miller then joined Underwood, who has been a WishMaker for nearly 20 years, onstage to perform “All-American Girl.”

The eight-time Grammy winner warmed up the audience for her and Miller to sing and dance around the stage to the upbeat 2007 country song.

“We are extremely blessed to be able to be on this stage,” she said during her final show, referring to herself and the band. “There are so many turns of events I know in my life, and I’m sure in these guys’ lives, that only God could have opened those doors and got me to the next place.”

“It’s been really incredible to be on that roller coaster ride, and definitely recognize that it’s all Him and just all blessings,” Underwood continued. “It has been an absolute honor to get to be on this stage. From all of us, we are so blessed. I’m gonna be reflecting on all that we’ve done here with you guys.”
