Herbert Harold Sorensen
May 24, 1930 — September 26, 2021
Herbert H. Sorensen’s spirit left his mortal body behind September 26, 2021, surrounded by family at home. Herb was born May 24, 1930.
Herb's life journey started in a lumber camp in Bremerton WA. He was the second child of Harry and Bertha Bocksnick Sorensen. He came to Polson with his family as a young child. He graduated in 1950 from Polson High School, married his high school sweetheart June Sagmiller, then served as a radio operator in the Korean War.
Upon discharge Herb built a family, a home, friendships, and a legacy of generosity. Generations of kids called Herb 'Uncle' or 'Grandpa' whether they were actually related. The Sorensen work ethic, integrity and generosity has touched countless lives. Herb was a classic "taker-care-of-er" he loved, and took care of his family, others in need, and his critters. (Horses, cows, chickens, dogs, cats, ducks...)
Herb was preceded in death by two sisters, Myrtle and Bertie, his wife June, and two sons, Herbie and Kevin. He leaves behind son KC (Cindy) Sorensen, daughter Jean (Ted) Basler, grandchildren, great grandchildren, nieces, nephews, grand nieces, grand nephews, neighbors, and friends who all feel the sting of loss but have been touched and are grateful to have known such a big-hearted man.
A Celebration of Life will be held this next summer. Cards can be mailed to, 38744 Morgan Lane, Polson MT 59860, c/o of KC and Cindy. Written memories of Herb would be greatly welcomed.
