Navy Mom Surprises Son at Graduation

Vera Turner is a Petty Officer, Second Class in the Navy, who hasn't seen her family in 9 months. Her son, Steven Turner, Jr. is a high school senior who hoped to see his mom as his graduation. while he thought she wasn't going to make it, Vera Turner had other plans. She kept the secret of her coming home from the whole family. Steven was filled with joy when his mom stepped out onto the stage to greet him.

[@tioshawilliams5401]

It was a really beautiful moment and he is such a nice person too.. like seeing this again got me crying but not as bad as when we we're at the actual graduation.. they set good goals for us that year.. BHS class of 2015 had 95%of the seniors going to college.. and my year class of 2016 had 100%.. but I think that if our seniors the year before me didn't set that example we would not have gotten 100%...they were the best...
