WAUSAU, WI (WSAU) — Flags across Wisconsin are flying at half-staff at the order of Governor Tony Evers as the Wausau post of the State Patrol prepares to bury one of their own.
Master Trooper Daniel Stainbrook died in early November after contracting COVID-19 while on duty.
“The state of Wisconsin lost a true public servant with the passing of Dan Stainbrook. With two decades of dedicated service to his community and the state of Wisconsin, his loss is felt deeply by all those who knew and worked with him,” said Gov. Evers in a statement released at the time of Master Trooper Stainbrook’s passing. “Dan was a part of our team, and Kathy and I extend our deepest condolences to Dan’s family and loved ones as well as his colleagues in the Wisconsin State Patrol and Department of Transportation during this incredibly challenging time.”
Services for Stainbrook will be held on Tuesday in Plover. Full law enforcement honors will be given.
