Mom Was Bawling At Marine Son’s Christmas Absence, But When She Looked To Her Left? The Greatest Surprise!

Christmas is a time for family and celebration. But for the Martin family a major part of their home was missing: their son Shane.

A Marine, Pvt. Shane Martin was unable to come back in time for Christmas for the first time ever… or so his mother, father, brother and sisters thought. Well, at least one sister didn’t know. The other was in cahoots with Shane planning what would be the “best Christmas gift ever,” according to Mrs. Martin.

It may seem like the reporter from the Detroit news station was spurring on emotions, but it just makes the reunion even more of a surprise… as Shane even went to the extent of sending flowers of condolences for his absence.

But the moment Shane walks through the door… let’s just say I was crying like a baby. This totally genuine moment of a reunion between a son and brother with his family is indescribably touching.
