Kim Walter Sorrells passed away at his home on Tuesday, March 31, 2020. He was 64 years of age. Kim was preceded in death by his daughter, Jennifer Leigh Sorrells. He is survived by his parents, Curtis and Helen Sorrells; his beloved wife of 40 years, Merry Pease Sorrells; their daughters, Jeanie L’Hoste (Rodney) and Nikki Riess (Carson); their son, Curtis Sorrells (Ashley); their grandchildren, Curtis L’Hoste, Hayden Riess, Avery Riess, Gabriel Sorrells, Carter L’Hoste, and William Sorrells; his siblings, Curtis, Daniel (Drew), and Julie (Luke); in-laws who were truly family; and many nieces, nephews, extended family, and friends.

Kim’s greatest joy was his family. He was a true friend to all who knew him. His warmth, humor, winning smile, and good nature brightened every room he entered. With his wealth of wisdom and knowledge, Kim was sought after by family and friends for his guidance and counsel.

He was a founder, and Executive Vice President & Chief Operations Officer at Omni Bank, and prided himself on the bank’s mission of serving the community. Kim was a lifelong member of the First Church of Christ Scientist in New Orleans. His keen sense of principle and love informed all that he did. Kim’s lasting legacy of faith, loyalty, and fun will live on forever in those who loved him.

The family will have a private memorial service.
