Our sages said, "No one is accompanied to his resting place by gold and silver or by precious stones but by Torah, wistom and by acts of good deeds." Truly, "Torah, knowledge and good deeds" accompanied Rabbi Solomon when he departed from this earthly life. His knowledge of the Bible and the Talmud, their interpretations and translations, were deeply engraved in his heart and mind. Words of wisdom flowed from his lips, and those who heard him speak the word of God, enjoyed it greatly. Rabbi Solomon was not only a Shochet, Mohel and teacher, but also a leader of the San Antonio Jewish Community for three decades. He was humble in his ways and friendly to all, his doors were always open to the needy and the stranger, for he truly observed the Command of "Hachnosas Orchim," and received all men with a pleasant countenance. For eighteen years Rabbi Solomon was the Rabbi of the old Agudas Achim Congregation, and for eight years Rabbi of the Rodfei Sholom B'nai Israel Congregation. A pioneer of the Hebrew Free Loan Associa tion, he was, in all, a great Prince in Israel. May his memory be blessed, and may his soul enjoy eternal l i fe . Rabbi Solomon gave charity both openly and secretly to the poor and needy.
