Colonel Wayne Bert Sorensen

A wonderful example to follow.

I met COL Sorensen approximately 30 years ago, when I served as the secretary for HCAD. Wayne eventually became the prog dir for the USA-Baylor Program. He had such a great sense of humor, and was always there with a smile and a joke. I was saddened to read of his passing, but he touched many lives! I found an old photo of him, probably at one of the graduation dinners of the Army-Baylor Program. RIP Wayne Sorensen

Dr. Soresnen was always a bright spot in my time as an MHA student. He was my advisor and mentor and I will always be endebted to him for his guidance. Earth lost a great soul but heaven gained another angel. I am comforted that he was strong in his faith--something we discussed a few times while I was a student. I will miss him terribly.

Salute to a great man, husband, father and humanitarian...he made a difference in my life. Baylor 89'.

Wayne befriended when I started full time at Concordia, helping me get acclimated to Concordia. We spend time talking about military experiences and about our encore careers. We are both retired veterans. He was an encourager, a planner, a confidante, and a humorous guy. I expected that God would allow him to return to Concordia. Sadly, He let Wayne slip away. I am sad...

I am extremely sorry to hear of the passing of a great mentor, friend, and colleague! Wayne was such a great person and always brought a smile to your face. His passion for the military and healthcare administration will be missed. Rest in peace Wayne.

With the heaviest of hearts, I express my heartfelt condolences to the Sorensen family, as well as the CTX ADP family. Professor Sorensen was truly a gem and loved by all that were graced by his acquaintance. He is a LARGE part of what motivated me, as one of his students, to continue on in my studies. The silly videos, pictures, his smile and wacky sense of humor made coming to the HCA four-hour-long-classes worthwhile. His knowledge of all things HCA encouraged my quest for knowledge, as...
