Jeffro Sorey, Jr.

Jeffro Sorey, Jr. was born June 27, 1958, in Marianna, Florida, the son of  Annie Bell Watts Sorey and the late Jeffro Nix.

Jeffro was educated in the public schools of Florida after which he joined the united States Army and served faithfully for twenty (20) years, after which he received an Honorable Discharge.  He was united in Holy Matrimony to the former Sylvia Wilson, and their union was blessed with forty-one (41) years of love and devotion to each other and the birth of one child.
