Mum Couldn't Understand Why Son's Grave Was Green – Freaks Out When She Sees Why

Losing a kid is the worst kind of pain. Sadly, parents of military personnel who have children assigned in far, foreign nations daily worry about their children’s safety. Staff Sergeant Joseph Villasenor enlisted in the United States Air Force in 1994, and served honorably for 16 years. He had been selected to pitch for the Charleston Air Force Base’s softball league – a dream come true for him since softball was his favorite sport.

JUST WHO HE IS? Raymond and Rachel didn't know how to thank Jake for his extraordinary gesture, so they just hugged him. "It was just incredible to know that a stranger would take that much time and care for our son who he didn't even know," remarked Rachel. What she didn't know was that to Jake, he and Joseph weren't strangers. How could that be? Now when Jake goes to the cemetery every day, he has two people to talk to: Betty and Joseph, whom he affectionately calls "Joe". Jake's son, Roger, knows this is just part of his dad's character. "The way dad treated mom and all of us — it's not a surprise," he said. Roger also contributed to making his dad's gesture go viral. Roger was so moved by his father's kindness that he decided to post the story on Facebook. "Very thankful for this young Man's service and very proud of my Dad and what he does to Honor him. Love you Dad!", he wrote. Roger knows the importance of family all too well, as he recently had a scare involving one of his children.
