She spent her youth and high school years in Loup City and Scottsbluff, NE. She resided in South Dakota for most of her life, living in Pierre for 33 years until her move to Maryland in 1999. She taught school for over 40 years in South Dakota in various locations in the eastern and central parts of the state. She was truly a pioneer educator for most of her career, teaching several grades simultaneously in now vanished one-room school houses. She often taught more than one generation of students from the same family. She touched the lives of many children. She received her teaching degree from Black Hills State College. She was married for 40 years to her late husband, Martin Sorensen, also an educator, and they lived in Castlewood, Webster, and Lemmon, where he served as superintendent of schools. They moved to Pierre in 1966 when he took a job with the state department and later served as director of the school food services department. Mrs. Sorensen was active in several organizations including the American Association of University Women, Eastern Star, South Dakota Reading Council, and the Retired Teachers Association of South Dakota. She lived for 11 years in the Parkwood Retirement Center in Pierre and was a member of the Lutheran Memorial Church. She loved to travel and did so often, visiting her children and family in different parts of the country. She also traveled to Europe and Canada and spent time in Mexico as part of a study group. She always contributed to the communities in which she resided as an educator and volunteer and made many friends easily with her empathy and thoughtfulness. She was a courageous person, a passionate and dedicated teacher, and had a love for the prairies and the state of South Dakota.
