HOLLISTON, MASS. (WHDH) - A little girl in Holliston said a big “thank you,” to police officers this week.

Nine-year-old Rylee sent them a nice handmade card to show her gratitude for all their hard work and inside, she had taped the $5 she had earned from the Tooth Fairy.

In the letter, she made sure to tell them the money had been sanitized.

Police said the card lifted their spirits and left them speechless.

“In a world that’s so chaotic and uncertain right now — to get something like this from a 9-year-old who lives in town — really made my day,” Chief Matthew Stone said.

Once it is safe to do so, Rylee and her mom are invited to visit the department.
