SORENSON-Florence – It is with great sadness that the Sorenson family announces the passing of a loving wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, great-great grandmother, and sister. Florence was born on April 8, 1932 in Red Deer Hill, SK and passed away March 7, 2010. Florence attended school at Davis Elementary, Gerrond Elementary, and then Red Deer Hill School. After school she worked on the family farm until about 1949 when she moved into Prince Albert and got a job as a waitress at The Wings Café. She later left after getting married on July 22, 1950 and began starting a family of 8, 4 sons and 4 daughters. Florence remained at home for the rest of her life where she took care of her children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren. She was in and out of the hospital the past few years for different things, eventually going back in February 2010.
