Jeffrey Lee Sorensen, age 33 of Opelika, Alabama and native of Mount Olive, Alabama left this world to be with our Heavenly Father on Saturday, February 8, 2020. Jeffrey was born on November 21, 1986 to Wayne “Bubba” Sorensen and Debbie Bishop Sorensen.
Jeffrey is known as a son, brother, husband, father, uncle, nephew, cousin, and friend, but his absolute favorite title was “Daddy” to Jaxon Lee “Sticky” and Sadie Lynn “Cuppycake”. His love for his family was like no other love, and his role as a father was his greatest honor. Jeffrey could light up a room with his infectious smile. He never met a stranger, and would give the shirt off his back to anyone in need. His strong work ethic, paired with his willingness to help anyone, and capability to fix anything added to the many reasons everyone loved knowing him. Jeffrey was a natural born, avid fisherman, and always had an adventurous spirit. He enjoyed cooking for the ones he loved, then joining them around the table. He cheered the loudest for Alabama football. Jeffrey was unique in so many ways and touched so many lives through his generosity.
He is survived by his parents, Wayne and Debbie Sorensen; his wife, Natasha Hanney Sorensen; his son Jaxon Lee Sorensen; his daughter Sadie Lynn Sorensen; his sister and her family, Amy Sorensen Tucker, Mark, Emmett, and Annalise; his grandmother, Carolyn Sorensen; his grandfather, Bill Barrett; his mother-in-law, Denise Hanney Jacobson; numerous aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends. Jeffrey was welcomed into Heaven by his grandmother, Elizabeth Barrett; his grandfathers, Ernest Sorensen and Hollis Bishop; his aunt, Denice Cash; and his uncles, William Bishop and Jerry Chamblee.
The family will receive friends on Friday, February 14, 2020 from 5:00 to 8:00 pm at First Bap-tist Church of Mount Olive. A Celebration of Life Service will be held at First Baptist Church of Mount Olive on Saturday, February 15, 2020 at 1:00 pm with a brief visitation from 12:00-1:00. Burial will immediately follow at Mount Olive Cemetery.
