Obituary - MOLLIE MATZA SOLOMON

Mollie Matza Solomon passed away peacefully in Orlando, Florida, at 92 years of age. Mollie was born in Brooklyn, New York, on Jan. 19, 1929.

She was the devoted and loving wife of Morris “Morey” Solomon for over 69 year, whom she married in December 1951. In 1951 the couple settled in Burlington, Vermont, where they raised their four children until 1973 when the entire family of six relocated to Orlando, Florida. During her working years, Mollie was an executive secretary in the banking industry where she utilized her expert typing and short-had skills. Her proof-reading skills were second to no one.

Mollie was a selfless and loving mother and grandmother and always put the needs and happiness of other above her own.
