Santoro, 68, of Kingston, died Monday, March 8, 2004, at the University of Tennessee Medical Center in Knoxville. According to his family, he was a leading world expert in nuclear radiation research, a retired colonel in the U.S. Army Reserve and a long-time distinguished scientist at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. During his 46 years in the field of theoretical, analytic and experimental nuclear physics and engineering, Mr. Santoro authored or co-authored more than 390 professional reports and journal articles and frequently presented papers at scientific meetings around the world. Among his many accomplishments, he was elected Fellow in the American Nuclear Society, and he co-authored a handbook for spacecraft designers that estimated effects of space radiation on astronauts. His calculations determined shielding design criteria for high-energy accelerators at the Fermi Lab, Brookhaven National Laboratory and the Harry Diamond Laboratories. He also developed techniques for using charged and neutral particle radiation in cancer radiotherapy. In 1993, Mr. Santoro was selected by the Department of Energy to serve as a senior member of the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor Joint Central Team at the Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics in Garching, Germany. In 1994, he was appointed to lead the ITER Nuclear Analysis Group and was responsible for all of the nuclear analysis of ITER systems and management of ITER integral experiment programs being performed in Europe and Japan. After five years in Germany, Mr. Santoro returned to the Oak Ridge National Laboratory Computational Physics and Engineering Division, where he assumed leadership roles in several programs with the U.S. Army Nuclear and Chemical Agency, U.S. Army National Ground Intelligence Center, Knolls Atomic Power Laboratory and the Defense Threat Reduction Agency. Mr. Santoro played a key role in an international effort that resulted in the resolution of the Hiroshima/Nagasaki dose reconstruction discrepancy that has lingered for almost 50 years. He also served on the NATO panel that sets policy for all NATO force operations in nuclear environments. "He is an enormously creative, productive and enthusiastic researcher," Dan Ingersoll, former head of ORNL's Nuclear Analysis and Shielding Section, once wrote about him. Joe Pace, a co-worker at ORNL for more than 30 years, said, "He had a rare combination of technical skills and leadership ability - honesty, congeniality and common sense." Mr. Santoro was also a highly decorated army officer. His awards include the Legion of Merit, two Meritorious Service medals, four Army Reserve Components Achievement medals, three Army Commendation medals, three Army Reserve medals and the National Defense Service medal, among others. Mr. Santoro was a 1958 graduate of Virginia Polytechnic Institute. He made Oak Ridge his home from the time he was a co-op student there in 1956 until his move to Germany in 1993. After returning, he and his wife, Janice Hildebrand Santoro, moved to a lakeside home in Kingston, where his family said he enjoyed fishing and boating, his favorite pastimes. Despite his highly technical background, with master's degrees in physics from the University of Tennessee and the Oak Ridge School of Reactor Technology, his family said he cultivated many lasting friendships with people from virtually every walk of life. According to his family, Mr. Santoro was a frequent early morning visitor at Brackett's Barbershop in Kingston, where he engaged locals in playful debates on politics, world events, race, religion, family and sports. Mr. Santoro was born July 24, 1935 in Newark, N.J. and grew up in nearby Little Silver, N.J. He was preceded in death by his father, Joseph Santoro.

To my Fentress Co List......Willis was Doc MEDEKLE's grandson. Here is the story I found online POSSIBLE HOMICIDE VICTIM IDENTIFIED Knoxville police are investigating a possible homicide at a Cain Road residence. It is reported that a woman called 911 when she returned home Tuesday afternoon to find her boyfriend dead inside their home, located off McKamey Road in Northwest Knox County. The woman told detectives that when she called home no one answered. She said she then went home and found her boyfriend, 64 year old Willis Lefew in a pool of blood. Police say that this does appear to be a homicide. They are questioning neighbors to determine what they may have seen or heard.
