The son of a fallen Austin, Texas, officer graduated from McNeil High School on Friday.

Though Mati Abdul-Khaliq's father wasn't able to be there, police showed up in uniform to congratulate him after walking across the stage.

One by one officers lined up to give Mati a hug.

Interim Austin Police Chief Brian Manley tweeted out the video and said "Always family & never forgotten."
