Arizona Concerns of
Police Survivors
9th Annual
Run to Remember – Phoenix, AZ
We finally had the chance to attend and
participate in the annual Run to Remember held in Phoenix, AZ. Had planned to only participate, but they
were in need a photographer. Hard to
believe that I had a camera in the trunk, so I was able to assist in coverage
as well. Not like I mind at all helping
out a great organization and greater cause.
“Their radios may be silent, but the
memories of Arizona’s officers killed in the line of duty live on.
Sunday, March 3, those memories were
honored at the 9th annual “Run to Remember,” a 5K family-friendly run in
Downtown Phoenix coordinated by Arizona Concerns of Police Survivors in
cooperation with the Peace Officer Memorial Board.
All proceeds from the run/walk
benefited the families of fallen officers.”
