We’re not crying, YOU’RE crying!

This is so damn cool.

Over the weekend, many people on Twitter, especially folks like Ted Cruz and George P. Bush, started sharing information for the funeral of Joseph Walker, an Air Force Veteran who had no family and therefore there would be no one in attendance.

And in sharing it they encouraged people to consider attending if they were able because no vet should be laid to rest alone.

Air Force Veteran Joseph Walker will be laid to rest Monday, and no one is expected to attend.

The cemetery said they do not know where his family is and they do not want him to be laid to rest alone, so they are asking the public to attend. https://t.co/ydf39wwrBn
