Passing of Hi Babit - QRS Piano Roll Artist
By Arthur Marino

I had been contacted by Hi's daughter Lauri, who I met years ago back
in New Jersey.  Also Ben Godfried emailed me.  I went to the funeral
at the Star of David Memorial Chapel today, Sunday, at noon.

I was pleased that there were a lot of people.  Hi became "Mister Condo
Showman" and condo residents were in great attendance.  The Rabbi was
upbeat and did a nice job of telling of Hi's accomplishments.  It was
more a celebration of his life rather than a mourning of his death.
There was much laughter and sharing of personal stories.  He will be
missed.
