Rebecca “Becky” Lynn Sorg, age 73, passed away at home on February 20, 2023 in Indianapolis, Indiana. Becky was born on October 9, 1949 in South Bend, Indiana. She graduated from South Bend Riley High School and went on to study and receive her BA in elementary education from Manchester College. She later obtained her MS in education from Indiana University. Becky was a member of The Creek Church in Indianapolis, Indiana.
Becky’s teaching career spanned four decades and included stops in Mishawaka, Goshen and Berne, Indiana. She taught at South Adams Elementary from 1985 through 2008. She loved teaching and providing a positive impact in the lives of all of her students. In 2008, she retired from teaching to travel with her husband and spend time with their beloved grandchildren.
As a devoted coach’s wife to her husband, Kirk Sorg, she enjoyed many years of attending sporting events, particularly high school football games. Becky was a fan of all sports.
Through her many connections in education, involvement in sports and years of active participation in her church, Becky made an immeasurable impact on the lives of so many individuals and families, more than her close family and friends even knew.
