Watch Tim Tebow Surprise Cora Belle Edison with Video Message for 105th Birthday

Ex-collegiate and NFL quarterback Tim Tebow, who won the 2007 Heisman Trophy and a pair of national championships during his time at the University of Florida, wished 105-year-old Cora Belle Edison a happy birthday this week.

In the video, Tebow covered a number of topics, including their shared faith, five-sibling families (he is the youngest of five, and Edison has five children) and their desire to help people (Edison was a nurse). He also said he wished to meet Edison and give her a hug.

The CBS affiliate in Jackson, Mississippi, did a story on Edison's desire to meet Tebow on April 13.
