We continue to follow the story of Larry Nehasil, the fallen police officer who served Livonia for over 20 years.
Larry’s death has been met with an outcry of support for the family and many efforts to show appreciation for Larry as well as our Police force and Firemen. Even weeks after the tragedy, support for the family is still going strong:
- Last week, a Livonia resident and former classmate of the officer, presented the idea that a park be named after Officer Nehasil.
- Last Friday, February 4th, the Livonia Jaycees hosted an event at One Under Bar and Grill, with all proceeds benefitting the Nehasil Family. It was easy to see the community support from the many attendees to the multitudes of donated silent auction prizes.
- Last Saturday, February 12th, more than 500 people attended the In Memory of a Hero benefit for Larry’s family.
- This coming Friday, February 18th, at the Livonia, Brighton, and Canton Buffalo Wild Wings 20% of sales from all three stores will be donated to the memorial fund (promotion must be mentioned for donation to be counted).
The Larry Nehasil Memorial Fund has over $137,000 in it already, with many more fundraising efforts ongoing. To get involved, click here.
