Sending sympathy to your whole family l We Sorenson´s have so many wonderful memories. Emily was an inspiration to me during our 4-H years and beyond. Our parents enjoyed so many activities together - all the Woodbury Club, church and Square dancing. Gosh did your parents love to dance.
Mom (Sue) is still living with us at 96. She sends her sympathy to your family. Thanks for the memories.
Love and prayers,
Kathy Ryan
