I met Michael in 1988 or 1989 when he and others organized an act of civil resistance to the nuclear missiles in North Dakota, where I lived. Michael and Beth inspired me to begin volunteering at the Catholic Worker house in Moorhead, Minnesota, and joining in civil resistance to nuclear weapons. My involvement in both lasted for five years, until I moved on to other places and other things. Michael truly changed my life for the better. We remained friends at a distance until his passing. I miss him sorely. He and Beth are without a doubt the most generous people I have known, dedicating so many years of their lives to helping those in need and trying to make the world a better place. -- Daniel Schechter.

I am so sorry to hear of Michael's passing. I've always had a lot of respect for him. He was the first Catholic Worker I ever met. Beth and Michael were a perfect team. May his memory always be a blessing and may he rest in peace.

Our thoughts are with you, Beth. Michael set such a remarkable example with his deep and abiding concern for the wellbeing of others -- not just for those less fortunate or in need, but for all of us. We fondly remember your wedding and the first (and perhaps only) time we experienced at a wedding the presence of demonstrators (yes, those activist friends close to you and Michael) gleefully supporting the union of two friends, their love and happiness, with picket signs and cheers. What a meaningful event! We will miss Michael's sympathetic, and always interested, ear at family gatherings, but will remember and seek to live by always the wonderful lessons we take from his life and his contributions to others. Aunt Sally and Uncle Eldon Senner

Warm hugs and condolences, our brief but deep friendship with Michael and Beth the last half of the 90's remains very special to us, my true brother and an inspiration along theWay of Jesus. Whether their farm our ours near Hurley it was holy time and place to be with them. Peace, well done good and faithful servant. Leon and Mary Ann Hebrink.

My condolences to the family and friends of Mike Sprong. In the time I best knew Mike in the 1980s he was a great bundle of energy, kindness, activism and vision. I was honored to photograph the wedding of Mike and Beth. My love and peace to all, Bob Campagna
