It was a very emotional evening for John Travolta and his family last night.

Travolta, Kelly Preston and their daughter Ella Bleu made their first public appearance in Ocala – their adopted Florida hometown – since the death of the actor’s son Jett last January.

Greeting hundreds of fans, they attended a sneak preview of “Old Dogs,” which opens Wednesday and stars Travolta, Preston and Ella Bleu.

A choked up Travolta told the crowd, “We know that we are loved… We appreciate it. Jett appreciates it. We love you, Ocala.”

The special screening raised money for The Jett Travolta Foundation and several other charities in the area, including the Florida Highway Patrol Advisory Council and the Humane Society of Marion County.
