As it turns out, Carter got into a three-vehicle crash in Huntingdon, Pennsylvania. He crossed into the opposite lane of traffic where he hit the rear driver’s side of the vehicle and then collided with another car head-on.

By the end of that painful week, Robert, Carter’s dad, remembered that Kaylee had to go to the senior prom, and he knew that his son was supposed to come with her to that special evening.

The James Buchanan High School senior prom was held on May 19, and even though Carter didn’t really want to attend, he was still planning on it because he knew it would make Kaylee happy.  The accident had just made that impossible now.

A Kind Gesture

Robert decided to call the school principal, Rod Benedick, to ask for his approval to attend the prom, and then asked Kaylee if he could be her date, which is a really heartfelt gesture from someone who’s still grieving his loss.

Kaylee’s friends did her hair and makeup, and she and Robert had dinner first before going to the prom together, which touched a lot of hearts at the event.
