Genesee County ABATE, Stan's Harley-Davidson raise funds in memory of fallen law enforcement officers

By Mike Pettinella

Genesee County ABATE and Stan's Harley-Davidson presented checks to the Genesee County Deputy Sheriff's Association on Thursday afternoon after Genesee County ABATE held a Fallen Officers Memorial Ride on Aug. 14.

The group raised $2,000 during the ride event, and has begun a drive to raise funds for a memorial stone at the Sheriff’s Department Memorial on Park Road. The memorial was created in 2015 after the unexpected death or Deputy Frank Bordonaro in 2014.

A group of about 40 or so motorcyclist participated. Several donations were received and other fundraisers were held prior to the run.

At yesterday's check presentation, Stan's Harley-Davidson chipped in $500 more.
