"I spoke to Ollie twice last week and remarked to people how well he seemed to be handling this thing," Brosoff said. "When I heard what happened, it was almost beyond belief.

He was really upbeat. Ollie was taking this real well. "Based on his attitude these past couple of weeks, I don't believe it." Across the street, the disbelief about the loss of jobs showed in the tears and screams of the lowest paid workers, those making about $19,000 a year to clean bedpans, deliver trays of foods to patients and do laundry. In the basement of the hospital, Local 420 President Jim Butler talked to his members as they cleaned out their lockers. Fifty of them were being laid off; about 200 from the hospital over all lost their jobs Friday.

"Me! Only me working in my house!" Maria Velez, 48, a dietary aide, suddenly screamed in English and Spanish. Then she started crying. "I want my job!" NEW YORK (AP) The day of 10,000 layoffs for city workers dawned Friday with the funeral of a sanitation worker who committed suicide after receiving his pink slip. As Ollie Hartley friends and family cried and prayed for him in a central Harlem church, there were even more tears, wails and prayers across the street at Harlem Hospital as laid off workers cleared out their lockers. The pink slips to more than 10,000 workers took effect Friday, one measure Mayor David N.

Dinkins is using to bridge a $3.5 billion gap in the budget for the fiscal year beginning Monday. Health, parks and sanitation workers were the hardest hit. The mayor and City Council are still arguing over how to balance taxes and service cuts. Hartley, 29, would have been one of the 10,000. But he plunged to his death from the ninth floor of his apartment Monday.

Police say it was an apparent suicide. mmk at mm The "Everybody's upset with his death, everybody's upset with the layoffs. Now you've got to hope YOU don't get a pink slip," said Mike Mehlrose, a sanitation coworker, one of about 100 people at the service. "The city didn't think of his needs. But the city couldn't help it," one of the officiating ministers, the Rev.

Richard Baker, said before services began. "My heart just aches for the family." "Death was stalking Ollie," Henry Simpson, a friend, said in the remarks he delivered on behalf of the family. "Something was festering in his soul and the pain became more than he could bear or share and, in a state of despondency, he released himself from this life." Shelly Brosoff, a sanitation director of building management and one of Hartley's supervisors, found the death Obituaries, In Memoriams, and Cards of Thanks that appear below are paid an- II I I I I IX I F- nouncements.
