TIMOTHY SORGE

Timothy Allen Sorge, 64, of Allentown, PA passed away Monday, December 3, 2018 at home after his battle with pancreatic cancer.

He was born February 9, 1954, a son of the late Malcolm and Patsy Lou (West) Sorge. Timothy grew up in Wheeling, WV and was Catholic by faith.

Tim spent his career perfecting the art of baking. Tim’s talent was widely recognized in the field, and it was requested that he share his knowledge in baking with many others around the world, traveling to places like Germany, England, and Trinidad.

Tim’s love for baking was exceeded only by his love for his children and grandchildren. Tim had four children: Josh Sorge, Edward (Cecily Whisner) Suggs, Mandy (Anil Mandadi) Sorge, Rebecca Sorge; and his eight grandchildren.

He is preceded in death by his parents; and two brothers, Malcolm Sorge and Keith Sorge.

Tim is survived by his four siblings, John Sorge of Wheeling, Sue Sorge of Wheeling, Mary (Mark) Beaver of Wheeling, and Janice (Mike) Mirides of UT; several nieces and nephews, and many close friends.

Family and friends will be received for a memorial gathering, Saturday, December 15, 2018 from 11 a.m. until time of memorial service at 1 p.m. at Altmeyer Funeral Home, 1400 Eoff St., with Monsignor Kevin Quirk officiating. Interment at the convenience of the family.

Tim had a very generous heart, and was constantly giving to others. Because of this, in lieu of flowers, please donate to the organization working to find a cure for pancreatic cancer, www.pancan.org.
