Stafford, Va. -- Stafford Sheriff’s Deputy James “Jimmy” Kingman will ride his bike this spring to honor fellow fallen law enforcement officers.
Kingman is one of 300 or more officers who will bike the 240-mile distance from Chesapeake, Va. to Washington in the “Road to Hope Memorial Ride” starting May 10th. The three-day ride has stops in Richmond and in Stafford County and will end at Washington’s National Law Enforcement Memorial, where officers will remember the fallen at a candlelight vigil.
“Every officer who rides is supporting another fallen officer and their family,” said Kingman. “I know from the past, when we pull into Stafford and we are cheered on by those in our hometown that stand along Route 1 who come out to support us, there’s no better feeling.”
