Losing a parent is incredibly difficult but losing a parent when you’re still young is a pain like no other. When you are a little boy, you look up to your dad, he is your real life super hero: he teaches you everything and serves as your role model for how to be a man.

Jett and Jace Kellogg, recently lost their dad Boe to cancer. While it takes a lot of extra love to begin to heal after such a tragedy, Fox Five News’s Surprise Squad decided to step in.

As anchor Monica Jackson says right off the bat: “Don’t even try to hold back the tears. This one is going to get you.”

At only 10 years old, Jace already has an extreme dream to one day be a bull rider like his dad.

“It gets your adrenaline going,” he says. “I love the sport because my dad did it and I look up to him.” As Jace talks about his father, it’s hard for him not to relive the pain of the loss. “I still get emotional about it,” he says through tears.

The Surprise Squad was incredibly moved after hearing the boys' heart breaking story and decided to offer them something unforgettable to help cheer them up. Early in the interview, the boys reveal their love of PBR (Professional Bullriding) and their admiration of superstar rider J.B. Mauney, the reigning world champion. As Jackson leads them outside, Jace and Jett can’t believe their eyes.
