The family indicated that the cause of death was cancer of the small intestine. She was born in Great Falls, South Carolina, on November 4, 1922. Most of her "growing-up" was in Norris, Tenn., although the family lived for a time in Benton and Knoxville. Her father, Landrum Bolling, was a dam construction engineer, and their living in Norris was occasioned by his work on the construction of Norrris Dam in the early '30's, the first dam to be built in the TVA system. The town of Norris was created by TVA for the purpose of the construction of the dam, but it was much more than that. Dignitaries from over the world visited it, including President Roosevelt and Mahatma Ghandi. As a cub reporter for the high school newspaper, she spent one day accompanying and interviewing Eleanor Roosevelt, and watched with awe as her father treated Mrs. Roosevelt to an aerial view of the emerging dam in an overhead concrete bucket. At age 19 in 1942, she married her childhood "pal" Kenneth Frame of Norris. While he served in the Army Air Corps during World War II, she worked as a payroll clerk in the Manhattan Project in Oak Ridge. Among her "payees" was J. Robert Oppenheimer, the famous physicist who headed the scientific aspect of the development of the A-bomb. Like so many others, it wasn't until 1945, and the dropping of the bomb on Hiroshima that she learned the nature and purpose of the project. Immediately after the war, she spent a year in Fort Myers, Florida, with her husband and her brother, David Bolling of Clinton, during which time she worked as a dance instructor. Kenneth Frame, at that time, decided to pursue a career in dentistry, and after a year taking pre-dentistry courses at the University of Tennessee in Knoxville, he attended and completed training at the University's School of Dentistry in Memphis. While there with him, Sara Jo worked as a bookkeeper in a local Army base. It was shortly before this that their daughter, Jennifer was born. After receiving his DDS, they moved to Oak Ridge, where he established a practice. She handled its financial aspects. In 1959, they built a house in Peach Orchard, the first private sub-division in Oak Ridge. On the hillside above, lived Eugene Joyce, the well-known local attorney. To their left and right were Earl and Maureen Crow and Clair and Kathy Collins. Below them were Peter and Drusilla Mazur. All became fast friends. Two years later, at age 39, Dr. Frame suffered a serious stroke. A year later, through intensive efforts by Sara Jo, he recovered almost completely and was able to resume his practice. During that time she wrote an essay titled "Treat Him Like A King", which the neurologist thought so highly of that he handed it out to his stroke patients. During this period she also served as a nursery school teacher at the Oak Ridge Nursery School. In early 1980, Dr. Frame contracted and succumbed to lung cancer. Four years later, she married her above mentioned friend and neighbor, Peter Mazur, whose wife, Drusilla had died in 1982. He was at that time a scientist in the Biology Division of the Oak Ridge National Laboratory and more recently, a research professor at the University of Tennessee. During that period she worked as an administrative assistant at the brokerage firm of Paine Webber in Oak Ridge. After marrying Dr. Mazur, she assumed responsibility for handling much of the finances of the Mazur family farm in New Jersey and was on its board of directors. She also accompanied Dr. Mazur on numerous scientific trips both domestic and abroad. Foreign trips included England, Scotland, Wales, France, Italy, Germany, Belgium, Bulgaria, Czechoslovakia, Japan, and China. In the mid-nineties, she, her brother David, her sister Carolyn, two cousins, and their spouses had a memorable 3-week trip to Israel, the West Bank, Egypt, and Jordan, escorted by her elder brother, Landrum, an expert in the Middle East. During her marriage to Peter Mazur, she became fast-friends with her mother-in-law, Adolphia Mazur during visits to New York and the family farm.There was also periodic travel to visit her daughter, Jennifer and her husband, Richard who at that time lived in Minneapolis, and Dr. Mazur's son, Timothy and wife, Kathy who live in Madison, Wisconsin. At home, Sara Jo pursued golf, and became an avid fisherman both at their cabin on Watts Bar Lake and in Sanibel, Florida. She also became involved in literacy education and taught several clients to read and write. She was a member of ORCMA Guild, the University of Tennessee Faculty Wives Bookclub, and the PEO Sisterhood. She is survived by husband, Peter Mazur of Oak Ridge; daughter and son-in-law, Jennifer and Richard Dawson of Clinton; step son, Timothy Mazur and wife, Katharine of Madison, Wis.; brothers, David Bolling and wife, Judith of Clinton, Tenn., and Landrum Bolling of Richmond, Ind., and Washington, D.C.; sister, Carolyn Sergeant and husband, William of Knoxville, Tenn.; grandchildren, (Mrs.) Sydney Hogan, Richard Dawson, and Taylor Dawson; step grandchildren, Andrew and Lauren Mazur; first cousins, Lowell McClary and wife, Donna of Litchfield Beach, S.C., and William Ormes and wife, Agnes of Franklin, Tenn. The family wishes to express special thanks to: her friend and housekeeper of 15 years, Laquita Foley, of Oliver Springs, and her friend, Alberta Ferrar of Knoxville; her home-caregiver, Dee Martin of La Follette, who was tremendously supportive the past two months; Drs. David Compton, Ronald Wray, David Long, and Ronald Lands, who struggled with the diagnosis and attempted treatment of her rare disease, and to those who have been stead-fast friends, both over the years and especially in the last two months. A memorial service will be held at 10:30 a.m. on Friday, April 11, at the United Church Chapel on the Hill, Oak Ridge, with Rev. Boyd Carter officiating. The burial will follow at Oak Ridge Memorial Park. Memorial gifts may be contributed to the Kenneth L. Frame Scholarship Fund at the School of Dentistry, University of Tennessee, Memphis.

My hope is to find additional descendants of Samuel & Elmirah who might know their parents. Thanks again for your help - that's one thing I love about Genealogy - is the willingness of fellow "searchers" to help others.

Does anyone have information on Absolom Crabtree, son of James Crabtree? Married Sarah Freels 3//4/1884. I found them in the 1910 Campbell CO, Fed. Census in La Follette. I'd like to know where they are after 1910 and who was Sarah's parents. Any help would be appreciated. Erlyne Sherrill

Hello all, I am searching for information on Winfield CROWLEY/CROLEY. He was born in 1889 and was the son of James Crowley and Elizabeth Chambers. Winfield was married to Salitha BURRIS but it is said he was also married to a woman named Florence before Salitha. I was hoping perhaps someone on the list might know of who the Florence might have been. There was a child from this marriage named Bessie, no other information can I find on Bessie or Florence. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. Many thanks. Bonnie Phillips
