“This is my fun fact when I meet people,” Ashley Adams, an education major from Cibolo, said ahead of the “surreal” occasion on Saturday, according to anews release from the school.
“Who else can say that they went to college with both of their parentsandwill be walking the stage with them?” she added. “My parents didn’t get to finish their education because they wanted to start a family and there were better opportunities at the time to obtain that goal.”

As for Greg, although he never thought his own “dream” graduation day would be possible, he mostly just feels like a proud papa.
“I want to say I won’t get emotional, but I probably will,” he said. “I’m so very proud of all of Ashley’s accomplishments and the woman she is becoming. I thank her for allowing us the opportunity to attend TLU and for allowing us to watch her develop into the person she is.”
