An Anecdote That So Perfectly Captures Our Beloved Gail Quilting, as we know, is an ancient and much-loved art in the United States. Among the women who travel with the groups I guide, there are always some looking for unique fabrics for their quilts. One day, Sandy, a tourist from California, asked me if I […]

It is so difficult to write about Gail in the past tense.Even though we hadn’t seen each other often in recent years, she was a true friend — more than that, like a member of my own family. I met her in the clinic of Dr. Dan Tzadik. Tzadik had been my teacher at Hadassah […]

Remembering Gail I first met Gail in the 1990s, though it always felt like we had been friends forever. Gail had a remarkable gift – the ability to make you feel like her best friend, even as she somehow managed to make everyone else feel the same way. That was just who Gail was. What […]

It is with honor and respect that I write my memories of knowing Gail Solomon. Watching her take on life, her way, over the many years that I knew her, was inspiring, curious and I truly did not know anyone quite like Gail. Her quest to find whatever it was she was seeking, during various […]

A Little Story I remember that Gail used to close all the blinds in your house when the children were small at 6:00 PM and tell them that nighttime had arrived. It was so funny. Gail was the purest woman there is. Always volunteering to help, shop, drive. She was an amazing and loyal friend […]

Gail was a very sweet lady. One time when she was visiting Tulsa, she invited me to her sister’s house for lunch. She prepared a delicious meal of sandwiches and soup. We had a wonderful visit. Even though I am a Christian Pastor, Gail never let our religious differences come between our friendship. I enjoyed […]

We met when we shared an apartment at 13 Metudela Street in Jerusalem. Some of our other friends lived in the same building, and from time to time, we would all go out together to eat or spend time. We lived together for two years, during which we became close friends – a true friendship […]

I’m deeply saddened by this news. We shared some brief but lovely hours together! I felt her warmth and generous spirit! I can’t imagine not having more visits. Gail will remain a beautiful blessed memory for me.
