“Mr. Speaker, this week I introduced legislation to rename the post office in Kiel, Wisconsin, after Wisconsin State trooper, Trevor Casper. Now, I know many in this body may not have heard of Trevor, but back in Wisconsin he is not just the son of our State, he is a shining example of dedication and service. Trevor Casper was born in Sheboygan on May 21, 1993, to parents Kevin and Deborah. He graduated from Kiel High School with the class of 2011 where he was active in wrestling, soccer, and coaching youth sports. After high school, Trevor pursued a degree in criminal justice at Lakeshore Technical College, graduating in May of 2014. During Trevor's time there, he was active in color guard and served as president of the LTC student government. It was clear that Trevor was not just interested in a career but passionate about making a difference in his entire community. Trevor's dream was to continue his education at the State Patrol Academy, which he did, successfully graduating on December 18, 2014. Following his graduation, Trooper Casper was stationed at the State trooper base in Fond du Lac where he continued to serve his community with honor and dedication. Tragically, on his first assignment, he made the ultimate sacrifice. On March 24, 2015, he was shot in Fond du Lac while apprehending a bank robbery and murder suspect. Though mortally wounded, Trooper Casper returned fire on the suspect, killing him, and protecting those in the nearby vicinity.…”
