Lee County sheriff’s deputies made a Lehigh Acres girl’s 17th birthday particularly special.
Jessica Romero, who suffers from autism and microcephaly, usually spends her birthdays at home. Her mother sent out a message via social media soliciting birthday cards.
Deputies responded with a card and much more, showing up Tuesday at Romero’s home bearing gifts to help her celebrate.
The gesture left a strong impression with her mother.
Anyone can send their best wishes to Romero by writing to P.O. Box 1964, Lehigh Acres, FL 33970.
