Quarterback Keeps His Promise in 4th Grade and Takes His Friend with Down Syndrome to Prom.
Even though they are no longer in the same school, Ben kept his word. He recently surprised Mary and gave her a bunch of balloons with ‘Prom?’ written on them. Mary was both delighted and surprised by Ben’s sweet gesture, a ‘prom-promise’ turned sweet ‘promposal’ which she answered with a yes.
The lovely pair attended Ben’s prom at Susquehanna Township High School in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania which made everything more special for Mary whose initial plan was to go to the prom with her friends.
‘She talked about going to prom,’ Mary’s father said. ‘I’d taken her to homecoming and stuff, but she had prom on her mind all along.’
‘I presented her with the balloons and asked her to go to prom with me,’ Ben said. (Awww!)
Here’s a photo of Mary posing with family and friends before the big event. Isn’t she lovely?
They are just as happy that she was with Ben and they have nothing but praises for their endearing friend Mary. As they posted on Reddit,
I know Mary and can sincerely say that she is the sweetest girl ever. She always brings me a smile in the hallway and never fails to give the greatest hugs.
I have to say, both Mary and Ben make an amazing date. They even deserve the Prom King and Queen Titles. What do you think?
