To the Sorge Family,
We were neighbors when the family was living on Nottingham Square in Bolivar, and we were on South Hess Mill. Both your parents were very kind and hard-working people. We have missed them since they left the Bolivar area--it has not been the same since they were managing the store. So sorry for your loss.

Dear Scott, John, Brian, and Family,
Was very sorry to read about your fathers passing. Was very close in date to your mother's (4-17-13). Always respected and loved both of them. They are both resting in peace and together again. Would love to hear from either of you, just to catch up. Gods blessing to all of you and your family.

To Joe's Family,
I am very sorry for your loss.
I always enjoyed working with and for Joe.
I really appreciate his skillful management of the employee Profit Sharing Plan. His success with this plan continues to benefit me even today. "Thanks again Joe."

So sorry to hear of Mr. Sorge's passing. Offering my deepest sympathy to his family. He and his wife were the nicest people and so enjoyed seeing them at the Bolivar IGA. Those were wonderful days. The best service, good people. They were greatly missed when they moved and we lost the IGA for the community. Sincerely.
