I didn’t know Mrs. Sory, but I am friends with her daughter Sheila. Sheila would always light up and smile when she talked about her beloved mother. She told me stories of how her mom taught her so much about sewing and her great love for God. May Mrs. Majorie’s great legacy live on in the hearts of all that know and love her for many years to come.

Mrs. Sory was a delightful person, fun to know and talk to and loved by all. I didnt have too many memories with her but her Grandson is my husband and he told me many of the memories he had with her and how much he enjoyed having her in his life. She will always be remembered and loved by all.

To Tom and the entire Sory family, my deepest sympathy. Margie was so soft spoken and kind and my Mom’s best friend. I will try to tell Mom but I am sure she will not understand. You all were blessed with wonderful parents just as I was. May you all share their love of the Lord Jesus Christ so that you will be reunited in the future. Rest in heavenly peace, Margie.

She was a wonderful and inspiring woman, I loved her like my own grandma, and I’m so sorry for the loss, she will be deeply missed. I remember many memories of going to there house on holidays and visiting her cooking was amazing and she could definitely brighten up the room. I have only got to see her on and off for many years after 2000, I wish I would have got spend more time with her to tell her how much she was a part of my life for many years and I am deeply sorry for you loss jacques I know how much she meant to you and your family and to all of the sory family as well.
