CINCINNATI — Hundreds of vehicles lined the processional route for deputy Larry Henderson Friday.
Henderson was struck by a vehicle and killed while working a traffic detail during the University of Cincinnati's spring commencement last week.
Two processions were held: One from Spring Grove Cemetery to the Cintas Center for Henderson's funeral services, the other from the services back to Spring Grove Cemetery.
In Anderson, the first procession passed the D5 station where Henderson worked for much of his career with the Hamilton County Sheriff's Office.
Outside the D5 station, firefighters and residents lined the streets in support:
After passing the station, the procession headed to Mercy Anderson Hospital, where Henderson worked security for years. Outside the hospital, dozens of staff members stood for the procession as it passed by.
The second procession went by the crash site that claimed deputy Henderson's life on its way to his final resting place at Spring Grove Cemetery.
Henderson's final resting place was Spring Grove Cemetery, where people stood to show their support.

The man accused of intentionally running his car into the deputy is 38-year-old Rodney Hinton Jr. He was identified as the father of an 18-year-old shot and killed by a Cincinnati police officer one day prior.
Henderson retired from the sheriff's office in December after 33 years of service. He worked in several specialized units, including as an academy instructor, dive team member, bomb squad officer, FBI task force officer and more. He also spent nearly 20 years as part of the Bearcat team, volunteering his time working security during UC football games.
Deputy Henderson’s badge number, #129, will be retired from the agency.
