I have fond memories of Miss Soerenson as my high school biology teacher at WWPHS. May God hold her close now that she is home.

Mary was a wonderful role model for me and my family! She was my friend and supervisor who influenced my educational and personal life. We shared many experiences that were always memorable and rewarding! I am truly thankful to she and Mary Shea for their influence on my life. I will miss dear Sister Mary!

So sad to hear of Mary's passing. Mary devoted her life to the field of education. Rest assured that while in heaven she will boost test scores,revise curriculum and do it while being kind and fair. You will be missed.

Sincere condolences. Mary was a wonderful colleague at WW-P. May her memory be a blessing.

So many happy memories of Mary Lou and my sister! They were a happy, loving, generous, vitally spiritual models of Christian joy. Right to our last phone call, we sailed up and down life´s joys and pains. I´ll miss all those hundreds of genuine humanity.May she rest in peace with her friends and family.

I was one of many students who passed through Ms. Sorenson's biology class at WWPHS. She was a strict teacher, but was fair and understanding. She pushed to get the most out of all of us. I wanted to quit the class, but she would not let me because I had an obligation to myself and my lab partner.

Mary was a role model for me when I started teaching Chemistry at West Windsor High School South in 1987. She taught me patience in dealing with students as well as the discipline,"to treat the student as they treat you"! She will be missed. Rest in the peace of God´s loving hands!

I am so sorry to hear that sister Mary has passed away. The last time I saw her was when I visited with her on New Year´s Eve. She was always happy to see me and even happier when I brought chocolate or pickles with me. She always had a great story and was a wonderful lady. She will be missed.
