Soren O. Sorenson, 60, died at 2:30 a.m. this morning at his home at 532 Barnett street from a sudden heart attack. Although Mr. Sorenson had been ill for six weeks, his passing was an unexpected shock.
Mr. Sorenson was born at Malling, Denmark, on May 30, 1888. He grew to young manhood in Denmark and came to this country, coming directly to Beaverhead county, when he was 21 years of age. He started working for Carl C. Hansen, who was an acquaintance in Denmark. He worked for Mr. Hansen for certain periods until his death.
The deceased was married to Lena Hug, of Yellowstone county, in March 1924. He moved to Billings where he was employed as a locksmith. He returned to Beaverhead county in 1931 where he went to Armstead and again worked for Carl C. Hansen. In 1933 he moved to Dillon which has since been his home.
He is survived by his wife, six boys, Albert, Otto, Elmer, Lester, David and Alan, all of who live in Dillon except Otto, who lives in Portland; three daughters, Mariann, Launa and Betty, all of Dillon. Three granddaughters, Nancy Jean, Carol Ann and Edith Lorraine, also survive.
Funeral services will be held Friday at 2 p.m. at the Brundage Chapel. Interment will be in Mountain View cemetery with Dillon Veterans of Foreign Wars conducting graveside services.
