Dressed in a white shirt with red stripes and grey tracksuit bottoms, Van Dyke was seen strumming on his ukulele as he concentrated intently. At one point, he even asked, "Where's the F, quick?" His companion playing along with him then offered some assistance as they both laughed.
The star was taking the lesson as part of a music therapy session at the CURE social wellness club. His fans and followers were absolutely delighted by the video, praising his skills and enthusiasm and dubbing him a 'legend'.
"You sir are such a legend. So inspiring," wrote one follower. Another added: "This post made my day! You are an inspiration and class act! Hugs to you!"
