  Myron E. Spranger, Sr., age 87, of Black Creek, passed away Thursday, May 5, 2016 at Good Shepherd Nursing Home in Seymour. He was born July 29, 1928 in Navarino, WI, the oldest son of the late Clarence and Viola (Conradt) Spranger. He spent most of his childhood and teen years living and working at his grandma and grandpa Conradt's farm. In 1948 Myron joined the U.S. Army and served for 21 years. He was a Korean War Veteran and retired as a Sargent First Class. In 1954 while stationed in National Park NJ he met and married Helen D. Maier. They went on to have a family and made several moves that the military life required of him. They also lived in such places as Germany, Michigan and Texas. After retiring from the Army in 1969, the family made one more move to Wisconsin where Myron was born and raised. He was a member of the Seymour American Legion and the Black Creek Community Bible Church. He always had the desire to be a farmer, so they built a farmett a few miles north of Black Creek, where he raised a few chickens, pigs, goats and a jersey cow that had to be milked by hand. While playing "Old McDonald", he was also employed at Appleton Papers until 1990. He enjoyed many years traveling with his wife, babysitting his grandchildren, and helping his neighbors and son-in-law on their farms. He was well known for liking things neat and tidy, and that is the way he kept his home, yard, and himself. In 2006 Myron was diagnosed with Alzheimer's which robbed him of many years that could have been much more enjoyable to him. Myron is survived by his wife Helen of 61 years; his son, Myron Jr. (Sharon) Spranger, Hortonville; daughter, Shirley (Mike) Thiel, Black Creek; son, Ronald (Wanda) Spranger, Black Creek; ten grandchildren; 5 great-grandchildren; and 4 step-great grandchildren; brother, Donny (Reiko) Spranger, Kaukauna; sisters: Carol Spranger, Appleton; Shirley Salerno, Appleton; many nieces and nephews; sisters-in-law: Barbara Hassel, NJ; Carol (Ron) Sparks, NJ; and Daveine (Forest) Wendt, IL; many nieces and nephews. He is preceded in death by an infant daughter, and his brother, Eugene. Friends may call at Seymour Assembly of God Church on Monday, May 9, 2016 from 9 a.m. until services at 11 a.m. with Pastor Bernard Ferguson officiating. Military Rites will follow the service. Burial will take place in the Cicero Methodist Cemetery. Online condolences may be expressed at www.muehlboettcher.com.
