His Deeds Are His Memorial "terrestrial immortality while still alive." "Mr. Weisberg philosophized about people doing the right thing while alive, reminding them that they can take nothing to the grave," he said. "I will remember Hiram for his unquenchable optimism, for his nev-er-say-die spirit, for knowing how to face the deaths of those he dearly loved. I lament his passing as King David lamented the death of his beloved Jonathan. 'Very pleasant has thou been to me, wonderful was thy love to he quoted.

"We need not erect monuments to the righteous. Their deeds are their memorials The righteous are called living even when dead. Hiram, now I say, go thy way for the Lord hath called thee. Amen. "It is still difficult to realize that Hiram Weisberg has died.

He wanted to live to be 100. Though chronologically he was 88, he was never old in spirit. He gave the impression of being young with that zestful style that was his hallmark, said Dr. Theodore S. Levy, rabbi of the temple, in his eulosv yesterday.

He closed the ritual with the traditional prayer with its hauntingly beautiful minor-key music so touching for hearts that mourn.
