Mary is his first best friend, Benjamin s mom, Sarah Olson, told KARE 11, and she is so happy they have each other. Mary is a widow whose family lives out of state, and she now has pictures of Benjamin and Noah on display in her home. They re the closest thing to grandchildren I have around here, she said.
