Aubrey’s mom Lindsey Hutson says she was left in tears when she found the message. She posted security footage of Anderson writing the message on Facebook, where it has racked up thousands of views.

“I yelled thank you, and he said I’m not amazing Aubrey is amazing," Lindsey Hutson told WFLA. “There’s nothing glamorous about it, but when this happens and when people reach out on social media it’s making it so much easier."
