I did not know Trooper Sperr, but I travel constantly through Big Flats and Elmira on my way to western NY State. I am proud to have known that he was protecting my family each time we passed through his zone. My condolences to his family, and their sacrifice that he and they made on that day. My heart goes out to them.

To the family and co-workers of Trooper Sperr, our deepest regards and sympathy. It angers me that another trooper has lost his life, and another agency has lost a brother. May all that know and love Trooper Sperr find comfort in each other and may he rest in peace in the arms of the Lord. God-speed.

I went through the NYSP academy with Andy in 96 and remember him as a quality person. In the years after graduation he distinguished himself as an outstanding TROOPER. He died doing what he loved and was a credit to all who wear the uniform. May he now rest in God's presence. Take Care BROTHER, GOD SPEED, We will always "Remember" and strive to follow your example.
