A touching photo of a Texas youth respecting the uniform goes viral.
A photo of a moment of respect and empathy at a Texas funeral is taking the internet by storm.
14-year-old Moises Sauseda is an eighth grader at Davila Middle School, however the grace he showed while attending a friend’s father’s funeral speaks volumes of his maturity.
While the funeral service was in full swing, mother nature decided to throw a monkey wrench on the grieving attendees. This left one soldier who was there to honor the deceased veteran during the military funeral, standing in the pouring rain.
That is when this young man stepped up and did what he could to honor this soldier’s sacrifices. Moises said the soldier reminded him of his own father’s military funeral when he was younger and he felt compelled to do something.
In the photo you can see Moises shielding the soldier from the rain with his own umbrella while tears and rain ran down his own face.
Great Job, Moises!
