"This parade is monumental for us because of the Orlando shooting," she wrote. "It hit really close to home. We wanted to walk in the parade in honor of the 49 victims. At the same time, I wanted to give Erika something positive to remember from the parade."
Arroyo and Marrero weren't the only civil servants to get engaged at a Pride parade-- in London, a police officer proposed to a fellow officer at the city's Pride parade.
