An Anne Arundel County student recently decided to show his thanks to a school resource officer with a thank-you card -- a fairly normal sentiment. But it was how it was written that made it so special and unique.The special thank-you card was written in Braille, surrounded by the police emblem. It was a gift from Mo Gaba, 13, to Cpl. Chris Linsenbigler. Mo gave it to him during Officer Appreciation Week. "It was a tearjerker, first off. I've been a police officer coming up on 20 years, and this is the coolest thing I've ever received," Linsenbigler said.The two formed a friendship at the beginning of this school year and have become inseparable."Like, last week I asked him if he wanted to do gym with me and he said yes. And so we played scooter hockey, and it was really fun with him there," Mo said. While other students may ignore the officer's presence, it's not uncommon to find the two of them walking the halls together."This young man is one of the nicest boys I've ever met in my entire life," Linsenbigler said.Mo is a three-time cancer survivor. He went blind at 9 months, but his teacher said it hasn't hindered him.Mo's favorite subject is math. He loves the Ravens and Orioles, and wants to be a radio sports talk show host when he grows up. You can see his kindness is contagious. He hugs and encourages his mentors every chance he gets.The thank-you card is just a small symbol of his spirit. "Here at Lindale, the kids are great and Mo is a good student, and I have a friend for life," Linsenbigler said.​
