September 30, 2024 – Calgary, Alberta

Salomi Gudur Job, beloved wife of Gudur Job Abraham, of Chennai, India, passed away on Monday, September 30, 2024, at the age of 55 years.

Salomi was born in Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India, on December 18, 1968, to parents Nandavarapu Kondaiah and Seethamma. She was the third-born child with two elder sisters and three younger brothers. She was her father’s "lucky charm".

Salomi married Gudur Job on June 13, 1984. She enjoyed spoiling her husband with love throughout their forty years of marriage. She loved travelling with her husband. Her most memorable vacations were Kashmir, Shimla, and Wagah Border Punjab.

She had a passion for the Lord and loved to pray. Her favourite bible verse was,

Psalm 128: 3-4

“Your wife shall be like a fruitful vine in the very heart of your house,

your children like olive plants, all around your table.

Behold, thus shall the man be blessed who fears the lord.”

She lived accordingly until her last breath.

She was a devoted member of the Telugu Baptist Church Annanur. There, she played a vital role in all church activities; she was a treasurer at the women’s fellowship and an important member of the church’s prayer warrior team. She loved cooking for the church Pastors and God’s Ministers and was known for her hospitality. Salomi accomplished much throughout her life and was particularly proud of her children’s accomplishments. She will be most remembered for her love for others.

Besides her loving husband, Salomi is survived by her daughter and son-in-law, Ms. Aswini Vijayabaskar and Vijayabaskar K, Chennai; two sons and two daughters-in-law, Arunkumar Gudur Job and Caroline Arunkumar, of Calgary, AB; and Ajay Job and Mercy Salomi Ajay, Dubai, UAE; and three grandchildren, Hope Bethany, Kathie Amora, and Nathan Jireh.
