Oliver Davis greets every person he meets the same way: with a flower and a great big hug.
The 7-year-old from Kansas City, Kansas, visits two nursing homes a week, spending up to three hours chatting with the residents and giving them flowers. His mom, Brandi Davis, told Inside Edition her son "believes he's a real police officer. One day we were discussing what a policeman's job is, and I explained how they are there to help people."
