April 15, 2007 - Dear goodness - and another of us gone. These, I fear, will not be the happiest of years. Linda Wade Wood

April 15, 2007 - I thought he was doing better. i am so sad. Margo Macdonald

April 15, 2007 - Larry Soloman and his brother Garry were often in my homeroom at Snowden and later classmates at Central. I remember them being challenged by our teacher Miss Mc Kee in 6th grade . She would take any child that grew taller than she was by the end of the year to get an ice cream soda. Of course Larry and Garry did pass her. Larry was a wonderful guy who will be missed just as Gary has been. They were so close in life and now only 5 years apart in death. I send my condolences to their families and many friends.

April 15, 2007 - Larry sat behind me and John Tucker in our homeroom (Miss Willingham's, then Miss Thompson's). This is sad news. The tall Solomon twins stood at the center back of our graduation ceremony photo. They were literally the anchor of our class. Paul Sisco
