Kayla Berg Missing for Two Months
Hope Sprenger has been wearing a cross necklace everyday for the past two months, a present from her missing daughter. She says she’ll continue to wear it until she comes home, “I have no idea. It’s like she just vanished.”
Hope’s 16-year old daughter Kayla Berg has been missing since August 11th.
“She did not run away. That’s my true gut feeling it’s not in her nature,” says Hope.
Kayla grew up in Antigo and her mom says there’s no way her happy, outgoing daughter would have left without telling anyone. According to Hope, Kayla went missing while visiting her father in Wausau. The Antigo Police Department is calling Kayla missing and endangered.
“Everybody’s dedicated to the cause and we hope that we can bring her home safe,” says Captain Nate Musolff of the Antigo P.D. He says they have at least one person working on this case everyday. He says they also receive tips from the community constantly, “Community is aware of it and everyone’s chipping in to and doing what they can to help us locate her.”
Hope and Captain Musloff say Kayla’s entire family and the Antigo community are working hard to find her. They both say no one involved will rest until they do.
“We’re not going to quit until we come up with what happened. It’s hard to say when that will happen, but at some point we’re going to figure this out,” says Captain Musolff.
“She is my single motivation. She’s what gets me up every morning,” says Hope.
Hope adds she gets through the days by working to find her daughter, but it’s not easy, “It’s just a nightmare, like I can’t, I can’t wake up. It’s a living nightmare.”
A nightmare Hope says she will only wake up from when Kayla comes home.
