My condolences to the Sprague family,
especially sisters, Ardis Badger and
Margaret Sypkema. Remember when we
visited him (was that Mt. Pleasant?)
He was a very gracious host. And that
was many years ago.

I send my condolences to the Sprague family. Joe was a great mentor and pastor to many, not only in the Bradley Church family, but to many across michigan. It was a blessing to grow up listening to Joe every Sunday!

To the Sprague family.
My wife, Jeanne, and I offer our sympathy and condolences on the death of Joseph. He was such a faithful leader of his churches, Native American concerns and his tribe. He is missed already but remembered for his many ministries to the W. Michigan Conference of The United Methodist Church and Native American ministries. May the peace of Christ surround you with hope and courage.
The Rev. Kenneth McCaw, retired (former Conference Council Director)

To the Sprague Family: We are so sorry for your loss. Keeping you in our thoughts and prayers.

The Kavaluskis Family

I will miss his hugs and kisses at the ballgames, fighting with him over my bill for breakfast at the restaurant, playing golf with him, and so many other things. I loved him dearly and was very blessed to have him in my life.

To the Sprague Family:
We share your loss and grief. Please know that we are with you in thought and prayer.

The Sprague families: My prayers are with you all. He will always be my Papa Joe. A peaceful thought: You will not see me, so you must have faith. I wait for the time when we soar together again, both aware of each other. Until then, live your life to the fullest and when you need me, just whisper my name in your heart...I will be there>>>"Emily Dickenson

To the entire Sprague family,
I am so sorry to hear of your loss and may you all be comforted in knowing that Joe is at peace now. He was a very sweet man and he will be missed by all that knew him.
