Knowing this would be JJ's first Christmas without his mom, the officers wanted to try and make it special.
A parade of police cars lined up outside of JJ's home on Sunday to visit with the young boy. The officers brought a mountain of presents, including a new bike.
"We were happy to make a Christmas wish come true for a Leominster boy today," the department wrote on Facebook. "JJ loves anything to do with police."
