On his first day on solo duty with the Wisconsin State Patrol, Trooper Trevor Casper tragically lost his life in a shootout with an armed robbery suspect.
This weekend, the Wisconsin Troopers Association and Pick N Save will honor Trooper Casper's memory, dedicating a memorial near where he died.
The memorial dedication ceremony will take place Saturday, May 20 at noon in Fond du Lac. The public is invited to attend.
The memorial site is located on the 100 block of N. Berger Parkway.
Last fall, Pick N Save and the Wisconsin Troopers Association organized a fundraiser for the memorial site. Numerous law enforcement officers spent time bagging groceries for customers at two Fond du Lac Pick N Save locations.
More than $10,000 was raised for the development of a memorial site near where Trooper Casper lost his life in just two weeks.
Since then, numerous individuals and businesses have worked toward the development and completion of a memorial bench and flower garden to honor Trooper Casper’s sacrifice.
Parking is available in the Sabish Middle School parking lot and in Forest Plaza Shopping Center parking lot in front of Home Depot.
