Margaret C. Sorg

She was born on January 14, 1925, in Pocahontas Arkansas, the daughter of John and Adelaide (Nuce) Baltz. Margaret was a homemaker. Additionally, she and husband, Frank, began selling a variety of home-grown vegetables in the late 1950’s. They were best known in Madison and surrounding counties for fresh sweet corn. The vegetable market provided employment for their children and grandchildren.

Margaret was an avid flower gardener, an expert seamstress, a talented painter, and an exquisite cake decorator. Although she would be the first to point out any imperfection in any of the above, everyone else was too busy being in awe of her talents to notice.

She was a Charter Member of St. Ambrose Catholic Church in Anderson. In giving glory to God, she made beautiful banners and sewed baptismal gowns in service to the church.

Margaret is survived by her children: Don (Janna) Sorg, Rick (Pat) Sorg, Gloria (Kevin) Scharnowske, and Chris (Ann) Sorg.

Her grandchildren: Lisa, Matthew, Jessica, Scott, Michael, Joseph, Andrew, Hanna, Bethany, Megan, Josh, Laurel, Ashley, Ryan, Kate, and Jacqui. Also, 27 great-grandchildren and 5 great great-grandchildren.

She was preceded in death by her parents, her loving husband of 54 years, Frank, her husband Ralph Rodecap, daughter Diane Kerrick and grandson Shawn Kerrick.
