Not a Single Classmate Showed Up at An Autistic Boy’s Birthday. But Kind Strangers Did THIS!

Having completely forgotten the negative vibes of the day, Ashley said that she noticed his naturally shy child go out of his way today and treat his new friends as if they have known each other for years.  She added, “In general, deputies have big hearts – they thought about their own kids and wanted to make this boy happy because it was such a sad situation.”

All in all, 15 kids and 25 adults came in to celebrate Glenn’s 6th birthday. The guests gave the celebrant toys, and one woman even gave him a bike! Another sweet gesture that the family appreciated well was when a man came in and took pictures of the event, which he later gave to the Buratti’s. “It was just amazing. The people who came out were so awesome,” the mother told the Osceola News-Gazette.
