years. He was the general mine foreman of the Trixie mine for many years. He retired at a young age and spent many years enjoying his
love of golf with good friends. He especially looked forward to his weekly Tuesday golf trips with his
friends.
He was married to his high school sweetheart, Deanna Wall Sorensen, for
over 60 years. They were married on November 10, 1956. He had one son, Michael Kay Sorensen, on September 30, 1962. He had
two grandsons, Kamryn and Kaysen Sorensen, who were both the light of his life. He spent many hours sharing his hobbies with them and

of the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks Tintic Lodge 711 for 59 years. He served in each chair becoming exhaled ruler in

member. He spent many hours developing the by laws and incorporating it as a non-profit organization. He became the first president and
served for two years. He continued to be active in Firebird’s throughout his life. He loved hunting,
camping, golf, and especially spending time with family and friends. He had a gift for instantly making friends with
any new person he met. All who knew him loved him. He
loved living in Eureka and referred to it as God’s country. He spent hours
sitting on his front porch looking forward to someone stopping by to shoot the breeze. One of his favorite things to do was recite poems
around the campfire. His poems, songs, and stories will live on in the hearts of all who knew him.

was his three beautiful girls and grandchildren that he loved more than life itself. He would never miss a game, a recital, a birthday, a party, or
the chance to dance and have a beer with a friend. He was an avid outdoorsman, fisher, and hunter where he got a kill of a lifetime last November.

spring salads, per Serena’s
request. Marla Coons read a
tribute to Serena and presented
her with a congratulations cake
and a flat of garden plants (she’s
a super gardener). Leah Tower’s

wonderful accordion!
