    I am sorry to hear this sad news but am glad that Harold had a long life and enjoyed painting, traveling, and exhibiting his work for many years. I gave him a solo show at my art gallery in Peekskill about 10 years ago. It was a special time since Harold was also my high school art teacher many years ago. His paintings will keep his memory alive..I enjoy the oil I have of Harold's of a cafe in Europe

    Mr. Zabitz inspired, then gave enough space to cultivate creativity. His classroom was a refuge from conformity.

    My condolences to the Zabitz family. Mr Zabitz was a great guy - a true gentleman. His Art History course has brought me 3 decades of joy and counting.
