and last updated

Martin (Marty/Eddie) Edward Sorenson, age 53 of Great Falls, MT, passed on September 15th, 2018 at Benefis Health System Hospital from accidental injuries he sustained from a fall.

Marty was born in Williston ND at Mercy Hospital on August 18th, 1965 to Tilman and Yvonne Sorenson. He was raised in Williston with his siblings Lynn, Lanette, Lori, Dana, Dawn, Sherri, and Lance.  Marty was married to Becki Fauth in December 1988 and had his first child (BreAnn), born June 26th, 1989. He continued to live and work in Williston until he met the girl of his dreams Veronica Lindstrom.

In 1997, Marty and Veronica, his fiancé at the time had their first child (ArieAnna) together and shortly thereafter moved to Great Falls MT to be closer to his first born BreAnn.  He married the love of his life Veronica on August 12th, 2000 at Gloria Dei Lutheran Church in Williston.  Marty and Veronica had two more children (Sterling and Shyera) during the life they built together in Montana.  He has worked night maintenance at Wal-Mart of Great Falls for the past 21+ years.

Marty deeply loved his family and believed that family should always come before all else.  His children, wife and siblings could always count on him for loving advice and protection; nobody could threaten that. Marty always had such a great sense of humor and at times could light up the room with laughter with his witty banter. If he had free time you can bet he wanted to spend it with his wife and children and he always tried to visit extended family whenever he and Veronica had a chance.

Marty is survived by Veronica Sorenson (Spouse), BreAnn (Ryan) Cripe (Daughter), ArieAnna (Zack) Fulbright (Daughter), Sterling Sorenson (Son), Shyera Sorenson (Daughter), Rainer Cripe (Grandson), Yvonne Sorenson (Mother), Gerda Lindstrom (Mother-in-Law), Lynn (Greg Bangert) Sorenson (Sister), Lanette Bennis (Sister), Lori (Russ Johnson) Gordon (Sister), Dana (Patrick Burke) Sorenson (Sister), Dawn Poole (Sister), Lance (Mandy) Landers (Brother), Kelly Heck (Brother-in-Law), Cody (Lynn) Lindstrom, Kari Conitz (Sister in Law) and numerous nieces, nephews and cousins that he adored.

~A few simple words to sum up the life of this great man: Family is First. Don’t sweat the small stuff. Always be real to each other.
