Michael J. "Mike" Spector

It was through my mother Adele Sisson's devotion to Shorewood and her successful achievement bringing the Shorewood Village Halll to be part of our country's National Preservation Trust during Mike's tenure as president of the Village of Shorewood. It was through her dedication and Mike's support and photography through sharing wonderful memories of the rededication of the seat of Shorewood Village government that he was so proud.of. My deepest sympathy to all of the Spector Family. In His grip, Bonny Sisson Stilwell

Mike was the legal counsel to the Whitnall School District while I was Superintendent. I can not put into words the impact Mike had upon the Whitnall School District and me as a young Superintendent. Mike was always the epitome of civility and cooperation. I am truly saddened by his passing on. Mike had a profound impact upon his community, several school districts, and the State of Wisconsin. Most of all Mike was a wonderful husband and father. My condolences to his wife, children, relatives and friends.

Mike was the epitome of a great partner. He was a wonderful mentor and leader, and he will be missed.

Mike will be remembered as a person of great influence in building a great Shorewood community. His contributions to the community and our children live on. Our condolences to Mike's family. We are sorry for your loss.

Mike was an extremely principled gentleman who cared deeply about education and the children of Milwaukee. He was a man of great integrity and a skilled negotiator. I am deeply saddened to hear of his passing. My sympathies to his family.

Sarah and Michael,
May the love and good works of your grandfather never leave your hearts. I am sorry for you loss.

I was shocked and saddened to read of our loss of this wonderful human being. He was a credit to the legal profession and a genuine friend to all at Quarles & Brady. Having worked with him for a number of years I always found him to be a caring, honest man. We will miss him in this world, but heaven has gained a new star.

As a former member of the Kewaskum School Board, working with


To have had Mike Spector as our school district lawyer was indeed an honor and privilege. Though I was a very small fish in the pond, Mike was a true statesman in every sense of the word.
Mike treated every person on the board with respect, patience and helped us through some very contentious times.
I send my deepest sympathy to the entire family.
Sincerely, Ruth Schmitt

I worked at Quarles & Brady from 1997 to 2009. As a new legal secretary at Quarles & Brady in 1997, I received a phone call from Mr. Spector welcoming me to the firm. I remember thinking what a nice gesture that was -- he had not yet even met me at the time, yet he took the time to make that call. I found out later that it was his custom as Managing Partner to do just that with new employees. Until his retirement from the firm, he always had a smile and a greeting to everyone he saw, even if he didn't work with you on a daily basis. He treated all staff and attorneys with courtesy and, above all, respect. That is something that is all to rare these days. Rest in peace, Mr. Spector. It was a privilege to have worked with you.

It was my most sincere privilege to be both a relative and a friend of Mike's. A truly honorable man, in every sense.
I will miss you, and treasure our times together...
With love,
Sari Steinberg
