Frederick Walter Young Jr., 82, former director of the Solid State Division at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL), died Thursday, Aug. 2, 2007, at his home in Knoxville, Tenn. As an ORNL scientist, he was known internationally for his pioneering investigations of the effects of nuclear radiation on materials and for leadership in materials science research. Mr. Young was born in 1924 and raised on a farm in Dinwiddie County, Va. He attended public schools, then Hampden-Sydney College, graduating magna cum laude with a Bachelor of Science degree in 1944. For the next two years, he was an instructor at the college in math and chemistry. He attended graduate school at the University of Virginia from 1946-1950, graduating with a Ph.D. in physical chemistry and a minor in physics. At both schools, he was active in student affairs, served on student councils, and was president of the graduate school at University of Virginia, where he was also elected to Omicron Delta Kappa and The Raven Society. From 1950-51, he was an Oak Ridge Institute of Nuclear Studies research fellow at ORNL. He then returned to the University of Virginia as a research assistant professor. In 1956, he joined ORNL's Solid State Division as a member of the research staff and later held both research and administrative positions, including serving as a section head, associate director (1968 to 1988), and director from 1988 until his retirement in December 1990. He maintained a close connection with individual scientists and division research programs, particularly in the area of radiation effects. With the widening scope of the energy mission for DOE Laboratories in the mid-1970s, he was closely involved in the development within his division of new concepts, theory, and experiments. Of particular importance were experiments associated with the annealing of defects by pulses from a powerful laser and synchrotron X-ray experiments that helped to resolve the lively controversy that existed regarding possible mechanisms of annealing. His groundbreaking research investigations on the effects of nuclear radiation on metals required large metal crystals free of other types of defects. He perfected techniques for growing copper single crystals that were defect-free and used these crystals in several types of experiments, also loaning them to scientists interested in conducting similar types of research at other laboratories throughout the world. He pioneered experiments to determine the effects of irradiation-induced defects on chemical processes such as surface oxidation and chemical etching and used a variety of new techniques to analyze and characterize the introduction, arrangement, and annealing of radiation-induced defects. His studies gained him international renown, and he was invited to lecture at many of the universities and laboratories in the United States and abroad. He spent one year as a visiting scientist at the Kernforschung Anlage, Jiilich, Germany (Nuclear Research Center). His scientific recognition led to activities in a number of scientific societies. He helped form the Physics Society for Crystal Growth and was a board member; and was a fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science and of the American Physical Society, where he co-founded the Materials Physics Division and served as chairman. He was author or coauthor of some 263 scientific papers. He was known for combining a rigorous work ethic, undeserving modesty, and forthrightness of expression with a strong sense of commitment to service for humanitarian causes. This was evident at many levels, ranging from his commitment locally as a provider of meals-on-wheels for 14 years to his continuing educational support to young students. At Hampden-Sydney College he endowed the Samuel Macon Reed Scholarship and continued to provide gifts there to the Jessie Reames Young and Charles Reames Young Scholarships that were endowed in 1909 by his father, Fred W. Young Sr. Locally, he served on the board and as a trustee of the Pellissippi State Technical Community College Foundation and endowed an annual student scholarship at Pellissippi State. In 1991, Fred, in his own words, "returned to type" when he retired to his small farm in West Knox County. There this gardener and horticulturist of uncommon talent raised a wide variety of fruits, vegetables, and flowers, sharing them with his family, friends, and neighbors. They best characterized him as the prototype of a true "Virginia gentleman." Mr. Young was preceded in death by two brothers, Charles and Walter Young, and a sister, Anna Dunevant. He is survived by his sons, Rick and Tom Young; a daughter-in-law, Becky; a granddaughter, Joanna Maxey and her husband, Andy, and their son Grayson; a grandson, Bo Blann, his wife, Lora, and their daughter, Presley; two sisters-in-law; and a number of nieces and nephews. As per his request, there will be no public memorial service. His family will celebrate his life with his friends and colleagues at 3 p.m. on Sunday, Aug. 12, 2007, at his home, 2900 West Gallaher Ferry Road, Knoxville, TN 37932. =========================================== SUPPORT OUR TROOPS---FLY THE FLAG "Genealogy is like playing hide and seek.

SILVEY, WILLIAM ("BILL") HICKMAN - age 92, passed away August 7, 2007 in Roanoke, VA. Bill was a 49-year member of Bright Hope Masonic Lodge # 557 and a Honorary member of Fountain City Lodge # 757 as well as a member of Salem Baptist Church of Knoxville. He was born in Loudon County, TN in 1914. About five years later the family moved to Knoxville. They drove their milk cow and hauled their belongings in a horse drawn wagon and Old Bill rode the cow most of the way. He began work at age 14 and married Bonnie in 1939. He served in the Navy during World War II where he served as a gunner's mate/3 aboard a little wooden ship in the North Atlantic. His ship, the U.S.S. YMS-5, a mine sweeper, sailed out of Argentina, Newfoundland. In 1944 they participated in sinking a Nazi submarine capturing the captain and crew. In 1945 they sailed from Argentina headed for Japan. Before arriving in Japan, the Japs surrendered and the War was over. He was always proud of his military service. After the War, Bill and Bonnie moved to Halls Crossroads where they had a little farm on which they raised some cattle, ponies, and bird dogs. Bill's favorite pastimes were raising a garden, bird huntin', trout fishing and reciting poetry. He had several bird dogs in his life and some were notable as pointers and retrievers, some as flushing dogs, and a few were just hounds. Big Jake, Ginger, Mac, and Suzi were some of the more notable dogs. Ginger and Mac were the best pointers and retrievers he ever had. They minded their own business, did their jobs, and hunted close. Big Jake was another story. He was a big old rangy short- haired pointer. Jake didn't understand the finer points of hunting close. When turned out of the pen or truck he began runnin' and didn't slow down or turn his head until he had gone about a mile. Jake was also remarkably fond of yard birds as opposed to quail and grouse as he should have been. He embarrassed Dad more than once when he was turned out around somebody's barn by treeing the nearest cat, fighting with and whipping the nearest dog or catching the first yard bird he came to which he would then proudly retrieve to Dad with the owner watching and want Dad to put it in his hunting coat. Dad bought several chickens this way. Suzi was a long-haired setter. She was a gentle dog, good pointer and retriever who mostly minded her business except when traveling. When riding she would get bored and get into trouble like the time Dad and Number Two Son (Jim Larue) had left their hunting coats in the back of the truck with Suzi. Suzi apparently thought Number Two's hunting coat did not need a collar and she promptly chewed it off. Dad finally felt bad about Jim's neck getting cold and in 2002 gave Jim his own hunting coat just before moving to Roanoke. Mr. Silvey was preceded in death by: his loving wife of 50 years, Bonnie McPhetridge Silvey and daughter Elizabeth Ann Monceaux. Also preceding, him were his parents, Jim and Matilda; six sisters, Lillie, Vesta, Bernice, Nance, Myrtle and Fannie and one brother, Paul; and special friend Vera Brown.

When he was six, his family moved to a farm located immediately outside of Gallatin, Tenn. His youth was spent working on the farm and attending school, graduating from Gallatin High School in 1947. He continued his education at Western Kentucky University in Bowling Green, Ky., graduating with a bachelor's degree in chemistry in 1951. He later earned a master's degree in chemistry from the University of Tennessee Knoxville in 1970. He began his employment in Oak Ridge as an analytical chemist at the Y-12 Plant, participating in many groundbreaking projects. He later transferred to the K-25 Gaseous Diffusion Facility, where he served as a supervisor in analytical chemistry for 10 years and enjoyed participating in a wide variety of program facilitation capacities. Following this assignment, he was requested to transfer to the Oak Ridge National Laboratory as a supervisor within the Analytical Chemistry Division, and served there for 10 years prior to his retirement in 1993. During his tenure at ORNL, he was the recipient of four Environmental Protection Awards; the Harlan J.

His long-time love for photography started in high school, where he took yearbook photos. He later enjoyed photographing family groups for holidays, birthdays, and anniversaries and served as photographer at several weddings. Through the years, his interest shifted to that of nature photography, becoming an annual competitor and winner in area contests such as the Anderson County Fair, Camera Club of Oak Ridge, Tennessee Valley Fair, Southern Appalachian Nature Photographers (SANP), several regional Kentucky park weekend events, and the Kentucky State Fair. He had recently received his first digital camera as a Father's Day gift and just begun using it over the Fourth of July weekend. From childhood, he was also an avid reader, and remained especially interested in learning about new methods in scientific instrumentation and space exploration. He was a long-standing member of First United Methodist Church in Oak Ridge, during which he served in several capacities such as on the Ushers Board, the Stewardship Committee, and the Fellowship Nights committee. He was a 55-year member of the American Chemical Society (ACS), as well as a member of the Nature Conservancy and the Oak Ridge Institute of Continued Learning.
