Taylor Swift spread some holiday cheer this weekend, showing up at the house of a World War II veteran to play some songs for him and his family.
On Monday, the 27-year-old singer surprised 96-year-old Cyrus Porter -- who made headlines this year for being Swift's oldest fan -- at his home in Missouri.
