Memories Timeline

Guestbook

  1. I have so many fond memories of MS. Annie from working with her at the A&P. She was always a pleasure to work with always making me laugh.

  2. Dear Family, Please accept my sincere condolences on the loss of Annie. May you be comforted beyond measure as you reflect on the solid promise of a resurrection for all who have died. (John 528-29) Almighty God cannot lie, his promises are our guarantee and will soon become our reality. (Titus 12) JW.ORG

  3. I had not seen this kind and gentle lady in a few months, but thought of her frequentlyespecially going by where her house had been. Anne Solomon was a unique and exceptional woman, and a strong survivor. There is nothing that those of us can say that the family doesn’t already know! I applaud those that clung to her and looked after and LOVED her! I can see that quiet smile, twinkling eyes and the nod of her head. Thank you Anne for giving us the honor!

  4. I am so sorry for the loss of your dear loved one. There is a very comforting scripture found at Isaiah 258. It says that soon Jehovah will swallow up death forever and that he will wipe away all of the tears. So we can look forward to a time when death will be done away with forever. I hope that this scripture can bring some comfort during this time.

  5. My deepest condolences to the family and friends. The God of tender mercies and comfort knows the pain and grief we experience when losing a loved one. He promise mankind through the scriptures according to Rev 214 to eliminate sickness and death forever. JW.Org is an educational website which provides comfort for those who are grieving, many titles such as What happens when our Loved ones Die Does God care, and a lovely video, Is there hope for the dead May the scriptures bring you comfort.

  6. My sincere condolences to the family. May the God of all comfort give you the comfort you need to endure this difficult time and the days ahead (2 Corinthians 13,4)
