Ah, Keanu Reeves. What is there to say about him that hasn't already been said?

We already know that he's a pure angel sent from heaven, one of the nicest celebs in Hollywood, and just an all-around good guy.

While we've heard of his good deeds, this next one just might spring a tear.

Keanu Reeves is a man of many good deeds.

While other celebs are busy living it up in their ivory towers, you will often find Keanu being down-to-earth and blending in with the rest of us.

Like the time he cheered up a bus of people after their plane made an emergency landing.

Instead of letting people feel sad about their situation, he read facts about Bakersfield and played “Bakersfield Sound” music for everyone.

What a true gem! We'd listen to him tell facts about some random town any day.

Or when a resurfaced interview from 1994 proved that he's always been a gentleman.

He was doing an interview on The Big Breakfast when the host asked him what kind of girls he likes. Me... say me!

"Oh gosh, what sort of girls do I like? They're all angels," he replied in the most adorable Keanu way.

He also let out the most adorable howl when he shared that he's a lone wolf.

This next story of Keanu being perfect will really warm your heart.

The story was revealed in a Reddit thread about things celebrities had done that completely changed their perception of the stars. Reddit user afdc92 shared a story from their grandmother.

"My grandmother had a crush on Keanu Reeves because he reminded her of my grandfather when he was young," they began.

"Saw all his stuff, from Bill and Ted to the Matrix. She had a stroke in her early 70s and was pretty much housebound for the last 10 years of her life."

Movies became her hobby.

The characters almost became like friends to her because she so rarely got to see her own, they wrote. "Not too long after the Matrix came out my uncle was in LA for business and was eating at a really swanky restaurant when Keanu came in with a woman."

When he finished his meal, the uncle approached his table.

He said, "I don’t usually do this, but I just wanted you to know that my 80-year-old mother loves you and has seen all of your movies. You remind her of my dad."

To his surprise, Keanu told the uncle to call the grandmother.

"He spoke with my grandmother for several minutes and it absolutely made her year. She was so isolated and his genuine kindness to her and interest in her showed what a truly amazing man he is."

If you got a little teary over this, you're not alone.
