Lance Corporal Kyle A. Sporleder, age 20, of Sylvania passed away tragically Sunday, December 21st, 2008.
Kyle was a 2006 graduate of Sylvania Northview High School. Upon graduating, he entered the U.S. Marine Corps where he graduated as Private First Class from Parris Island. He was based at Selfridge, MI with the Marine Wing support Group 47. Kyle was also a proud and ambitious independent business owner with Amway Global.
A fun-loving young man, Kyle left an imprint on those who knew him and he will be greatly missed by all of us.

The Sporleder family wishes to express their appreciation to Mike OShea and the Young Life Organization for leading Kyle to his faith in God. Also, sincere gratitude to the USMC for all of their assistance in transforming Kyle from a young boy into a strong man. Lastly, thank you to the many friends who offered their presence in our home during our time of grief.

Thank you for the great video and allowing me the opportunity to learn about your Marine. My son LCpl Brian Parrello was kia in Iraq. It is a tragedy to lose those who inspire us at such a young age. May you find some comfort in the memories you have with him. Semper Fi.
