156 Dr. Phyllis Anne “Anne” (Hiltner) Baer, PhD (1941-2010)

Education: Reed College, B.S.; Oregon State University, PhD - Physical Chemistry.
Occupation: Professor, Researcher, Author

Married Dr./Professsor Eric Baer, PhD in 1999.

BIO: Anne Hiltner, Case Western Reserve’s first female professor of engineering and an internationally recognized scientist and engineer, died Monday after a courageous battle with illness. She was 69.

“Our campus has lost a remarkable academic leader,” President Barbara R. Snyder said. “As a woman in the sciences and engineering, Professor Hiltner’s entire career served as an inspiration to others. As a researcher of extraordinary ingenuity and accomplishment, she transformed her field. Her impact on the University, and on students and colleagues worldwide, cannot be overstated. We will miss her.”

Professor Hiltner came to the University in 1967, after earning a doctorate in physical chemistry from Oregon State University. She served as a research associate for one year with chemistry professor Irvin M. Krieger, and then joined the laboratory of professor Eric Baer, who was chairman of the Department of Macromolecular Science at the time. The connection with professor Baer proved fortuitous, as the pair forged a powerful scientific collaboration that persisted to the present. They also discovered personal compatibility, marrying in 1999.

“The dream of every faculty member is to try harder, harder,” Baer said. “She always climbed mountains.”

From the very beginning, Baer recalled, his colleague was committed to excellence. Whether working in the laboratory, writing papers or advising graduate students, Hiltner remained laser-focused. “She was a projects person,” Baer said.

In 1974, Hiltner became the University’s first female member of the engineering faculty when she became an assistant professor of macromolecular engineering. Seven years later she founded the Center for Applied Polymer Research (CAPRI), an organization that encouraged collaboration across disciplines and ultimately laid the groundwork for the program that she considered her greatest achievement: receipt of a 10-year, $40 million grant from the National Science Foundation, Science and Technology Center (STC), the Center for Layered Polymeric Systems (CLiPS).

The NSF received more than 160 applications for STC funding, and gave awards to six. CLiPS is the university’s first and only STC, and involves several other university partnerships nationwide as well as collaboration with the Cleveland Metropolitan School District.

“The STC made her feel she had reached to the top of Everest,” Baer said. “She really reached the pinnacle of her career.”

Over her career, Professor Hiltner published nearly 400 articles in peer-reviewed journals, and received multiple honors from professional scientific organizations. She was a Fellow of the American Chemical Society’s Division of Polymeric Materials, the American Institute for Medical Biological Engineering, and the High Polymer Physics Division of the American Physical Society.

In 2001, Professor Hiltner was the recipient of the American Chemical Society’s Cooperative Research Award in Polymer Science and Engineering. In 2004, Case Western Reserve named her the Herbert Henry Dow Professor of Science and Engineering. That same year, the Society of Plastics Engineers’ Thermoplastic Materials and Foam Division presented Professor Hiltner its annual outstanding achievement award. In 2008, she received the American Chemical Society’s Award in Applied Polymer Science. In announcing the honor, the society cited Professor Hiltner’s pioneering contributions in understanding the connections between hierarchical structure and properties of polymers, their blends and composites.

Even with all of the recognition, Baer said, “her greatest joy was her involvement with the graduate students. She loved the creative, productive side of her work.”

Hiltner did not want formal remembrances or donations made in her name, Baer said. The greatest tribute others can make to Hiltner, he explained, is to continue her creative mission through their academic work.

158 Edward Howell, taught dance with wife at studio, MDCC
Memorial services for Edward Howell, who with his late wife Argela twirled and dipped through a lifetime in dance, will be held Friday.
Mr. Howell, a resident of Coral Gables, died Sunday at 74.
The Howells began dancing as high school sweethearts in Chicago. Their career would eventually find them dancing in nightclubs in New York, across Canada and in Japan with the USO. They played “the so-called circuit,” said Mr. Howell’s nephew, Charles Watson.
In later years, the dancing couple operated a dance studio and taught classes for Miami Dade Community College. Mrs. Howell died a year and a half ago.
“They loved to dance. That was their life,” said Watson.
Their act, which they first took on the road in the mid-1930s, was billed as a comedy dance routine. It began with the impression of a classic, formal, elegant performance. Then suddenly, the music quickened and Mr. Howell was twirling his wife above his head in a fast-packed acrobatic show.
“It was quite an act, “ said Watson. “Very entertaining.”
As teachers, Mr. Howell and his wife specialized in ballroom dancing, including the foxtrot, waltzes and the tango. But they also kept up with all the latest crazes, said Watson.
Besides his nephew, survivors include a grandniece, Gwen Watson.
Elk and memorial services will be at 7:30 p.m. at the Van Orsdel Coral Gables Chapel.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Florida State Elks Children’s Hospital.

George Morris, 93, succumbs to illness at farm home in Allen-co
Columbus Grove, Oct. 17 – (Special) – George Morris, retired farmer, of Monroe-tp, died at his home Sunday morning, following an illness of general debility. Had he lived until Thursday, he would have reached the age of 84 years. He lived his life-time in the some district, three miles southwest of Columbus Grove, where he was born in 1833.
Up to a few years ago, across the road, less than 60 rods away, lived Mrs. Elizabeth Hartman, who was 90 years of age at the time she died. She too was born in the same district in which she lived.
Morris and Mrs. Hartman were children of Judge Henry Morris, one of Allen-co’s first white settlers. The first white settler had arrived in Lima just two years before George Morris was born. A year before the Shawnees started their westward trek and Allen co was cleared of Indians.
Mrs. Hartman was not quite 30 when she was married and for 70 years she and her brother lived on adjoining farms. Altho the district is southwest of Columbus Grove, the farm lands lie in the Monroe-tp, Allen-co.
Morris saw the dense forests of northern Allen-co developed into fertile fields of the farming community.
He is survived by five children, Mrs. Maggie Morris Trumbo, of Columbus Grove; John B. Morris of Rushville, Ind., the Misses Anna and Catherine Morris and George Morris, Jr., residing at the family home. His wife died many years ago.
Services will be held at 2 p.m. Tuesday at the country residence.
Interment will be in Truro cemetery, just south of his home.

169 findagrave note from Contributor: DogMama08 (47394092)
I found that the California Death Index on Ancestry shows two records for Margaret, one with the last name Schafer and the other with her married name, Decious. She married Donald O. Decious on 4 Oct 1950 in Contra Costa County, California. I found a short newspaper article in The Lima News (Lima OH), dated 08 May 1964, that gave her last name as Decious and mentioned her survivors, including her daughter Machel. There was no mention of her husband. Since she was buried under her maiden name, she was probably divorced.

At 18 he became a vegetarian on a bet which became his lifestyle. Up to this year he was bike riding 5-8 miles a day and walking at the Franklin Park Mall in the winter. He loved to travel and visited many countries. Fred and Dorothy also loved camping and toured all over the United States, hiking in many national parks, photographing every flower, bush, tree, and waterfall they came across exhibiting his love of photography. He spent winters in Texas for many years where he would organize 30 mile plus bike rides.

Fred had a very inquisitive mind and a desire for learning. He could fix most things, and had a habit of picking up discarded and broken items to bring home to repair. If he couldn’t find the right part, he would fabricate it. He was a tool and die maker and in 1950 started an injection molding business called the XM Company. All his children at some point worked at the business. It is still in operation day. When his wife developed Alzheimers Disease he became actively involved the The Alzheimers Association and organized annual walks in her honor. Fred was a 70 year active member of the Lambertville IOOF Lodge and it was a very important part of his life. He participated and organized many fund raisers and events from picking up litter on highways, to the chili cook off when he always made his vegan chili.

Fred was a patriarch of a large family. He looked forward to Sunday afternoons when we would gather at his home for a visit, along with his Wednesday lunches with his Son- in- law Ron and his best friend Bert Rucki.

His life was ended on October 27, 2020 after a short illness from Covid-19.

He was preceded in death by his parents, wife, sister and infant daughter Barbara Ann. He is survived by 5 children; Fred (Betty) Krumm, Kathleen (Ronald) Gill, James (Delores) Krumm, Daniel (Michelle) Krumm and Linda (James) Sullivan. He has 12 grandchildren, 24 great- grandchildren and 16 great- great grandchildren. Due to Covid restrictions, a private graveside service will be held at Ottawa Hills Memorial Park. In honor of Fred any contributions can be made to the Alzheimer Association. Online condolences to reebfuneralhome.com

185 Funeral in Gladstone
Funeral services over the body of Ashley Jackson, a pioneer employee of the Northwestern Cooperage & Lumber company, who passed away at St. Paul hospital on Monday, were conducted yesterday afternoon at the family home at Gladstone. Last night accompanied by members of the family, the body was taken to St. Paul, where it will be cremated according to the wishes of Mr. Jackson, of the life of Mr. Jackson the Gladstone Reporter says:
Ashley Jackson was born in Grelton, Ohio, fifty nine years ago, while he attended school in his early youth he never received what might be called a good education, yet in spite of this the deceased was one of the most highly educated and best read men in our city. From his boyhood days to the day that sickness forced him to his bed he was a constant reader and in this way he educated himself in the ways of the world and mankind. He spent about six years in the state of Kansas where he was engaged in the erection of windmills during the time that they were in big demand. He returned to his native town and state in the year of 1883 and was married to Miss Mary Watson, of this union one son, Glenn W. Jackson was born and survives his father. In the year of 1885 death claimed Mrs. Jackson, and in the year of 1890 Mr. Jackson took Miss Margaret Schaeffer of Continental, Ohio, as his second wife, of this union one child, Miss Edith Jackson was born and survives her father.
During the late eighties and early nineties, Mr. Jackson was foreman of various Cooperage plants for the Buckeye company in Ohio. In the year of 1894 he came first to Gladstone and at that time he came to look land, which was purchased by the Buckeye company. He again returned to Ohio and shortly after came back to Gladstone of the company as woods superintendent, one of the most important positions that a man could hold with this large concern.
As those who knew and with whom he toiled have lost a valuable servant.
The deceased has always been an active and energetic man, both mentally and physically, giving liberally of his time and labor to those who needed him.
In religion he early developed the habit of weighing things in the balance of reason, discarding that which to him did not harmonize with the Creator’s plans as he saw God’s laws in the big book of nature. He believed in doing good for the sake of humanity and not in the fear of the anger and vengeance of a higher power. Hell to him, is what men make for themselves here on earth, and not a place of divine origin for future punishment.
To the future existence, he felt that each will be rewarded according to the good deeds done in life. That we come into this life not of our own accord, and that we go not out of our own free will, but subject to the Supreme Power over all, and to that Power he was willing to trust his fate when his time should come to meet the mystery of death.
His convictions whether right or wrong were honest and sincere resulting from much careful study and analysis on his part, and with which he calmly met the fate of all flesh.
The deceased is survived by the wife, one son, Glen W. Jackson, one daughter, Miss Edith Jackson, two brothers, Willis Jackson of Grelton, Ohio, and L.A. Jackson of Cornelius, Ore., two sisters, Mrs. G. J. Cowan of Schenectady, N.Y., and Mrs. D. Battenfield of Delaware, Ohio.

189 Gen. T.A. Morris Is Dead In California
Pioneer and distinguished citizen of this city
His long and active life
News has been received of the death, yesterday, of Gen. Thomas Armstrong Morris, in a dispatch from the general’s daughter, Mrs. Eleanor Morris Chambers, to Admiral George Brown. He died at his daughter’s home at San Diego, Cal., whither he had gone to spend in restful quiet the last days of a life that had been prolonged far beyond four-score years.
He was born in Nicholas county, Kentucky, December 26, 1811. He was ten years old when he removed with his father, Morris Morris, to Indianapolis. This journey was by horses and wagon through trackless forests, and he was the last of the pioneers. In 1822 he began to learn the printer’s trade on a paper called the Western Censor and Emigrant’s Guide. This paper later came to be the Indianapolis Journal.
After four years at the printer’s trade, being then nineteen years old, he was appointed a cadet of West Point. He was graduated in 1834, standing fourth in a class of thirty-six, in which for a time the erratic poet Edgar Allen Poe, was a member. He was then brevetted a second lieutenant of the First Artillery in the regular army.
Work as an Engineer
After a year’s service at Fortress Monroe, Va., and in Florida, he was sent by the War Department to assist Major Monroe, of the engineer corps, in constructing the National road in Indiana and Illinois. After one year of this work he resigned from the United States services. He then took charge of the construction of the Central canal.
From 1841 to 1847 he was chief engineer of the Madison & Indianapolis railroad; from 1847 to 1852 of the Vandalia between Indianapolis and Terre Haute, and of the Bee line, now the Big Four, between Indianapolis and Bellefontaine. From 1852 to 1954 he was chief engineer of the Indianapolis & Cincinnati road. From 1854 to 1857 he was president of the last-named road; from 1857 to 1859 was president of the Indianapolis & Bellefontaine road, and from 1959 to 1861 chief engineer of the Indianapolis & Cincinnati road.
When the civil war broke out he commanded the first brigade of troops that went from Indiana, and after conducting the three months’ campaign in West Virginia with marked ability, was mustered out of service July 27, 1861. He had received the assurance that he would be made a major-general, but this appointment which was withheld fourteen months, he declined.
State House Commissioner
He returned to his business of railroad construction and management, in which he continued until near 1877 when he was appointed one of the commissioners for the building of the present State House. Nearly half a century before his father had held a like position for the building of the first State House erected in Indianapolis.
After the completion of the State House, in 1888, he became president of the Indianapolis Water Company, a position he held at his death. He recently resigned his position as life trustee of the Consumers’ Gas Trust Company. It has been many times remarked that no man in Indiana has had a life of so long continued activity and that it had fallen to his lot to be the first in more enterprises of different kinds, and all of public importance, than usually falls to the lot of any one person.
His knowledge as an engineer, his thorough mastery of any subject that engaged his mind made him specially valuable as the president of the board of commissioners in the construction of the State Capitol. All these commissioners deserved and received praise, but to the domination of General Morris is due the result, a State House built in accordance with all the requirements of the board, and within the appropriation made by the State.
Army Promotion Promise Unkept
It was always felt that General Morris had been ill-used, that the promotion he deserved had been delayed until he could not in justice to himself accept, and that his services during the years of the civil war following the three months’ campaign had been lost to the country through promotions of those who were less able and less deserving, but who made themselves felt at court.
On this subject Morris Ross of The News, nephew of General Morris, said;
“On Sunday, May 1, 1898, Uncle Thomas said to me, in speaking of the war, that the reasons he had been silent were many. He had fought the West Virginia campaign, had met an army the size of his own, had broken it up and scattered it utterly in three months, and would have done it in less time if McClellan had let him. The soldiers who were with him and the officers thought he had made a success. He himself thought he had. In view of this an appointment was promised him.
“He spent an evening with Mr. Lincoln, who promised him an appointment. He went home and waited a year, and then an appointment of the grade he had give up in the three months’ service, a brigadier-generalship, was tendered him. This he felt, he could not accept. A long time after that a major-generalship was tendered him, but it was a junior commission and he had lost his chance during the time he had been waiting. He felt that it was not meant he should accept either one.
Reason for Silence.
During all this time he never opened his mouth to any one: never asked my one to get him an appointment. He carried himself thus because he wanted to feel that it it was meant he should go into the army it would come in such a way as to demonstrate itself. His wife was sorely afflicted; his children were young; his father and mother, who lived with him, were old; much was depending on him in life; he felt that God had meant him to recognize his obligations in life, and he did not know whether that same power meant he should serve the country first or the family in which he found himself.
“And so he allowed himself to drift in the hope that they would assert themselves in such a way as to make his duty clear. For this reason he made no effort, feeling that God would guide matters so as to make his duty plain. He believes influences at Washington and here worked against him, but he did not assert himself or try to combat them for the reasons named.”
General Morris was married in 1844 to Miss Rachel Irwin, of Madison, who died several years ago. Soon after their marriage he built the old-fashioned brick house which now fronts in New Jersey street, near Twelfth street, but which, until a few years ago, stood near the center of twenty acres of farm and garden, orchard, vineyard and forest, around which on every side the city had grown.
The general had held the property together until after the death of his wife, when it was subdivided and is now covered by beautiful homes. The First Friends’ church stands on the western edge of this property in North Alabama street.
Aged Hunter and Fisherman.
General Morris even after he had passed his eighty-fifth year continued to hunt and fish. He was a thorough sportsman, his knowledge of woodcraft having been received when Indiana was covered with thick forests, and the red men were yet in the woods, and frequent visitors to the little town of Indianapolis.
He was the oldest member of the Second Presbyterian church of this city, he the late Simon Yandes and W.H. Hubbard having been among the near friends of Henry ward Beecher when he preached in this city. It was during Mr. Beecher’s ministry here that General Morris became a member of the Second Presbyterian church.
He leaves three children, Thomas O. Morris, who has recently gone to Colorado to do constructive engineering for a railroad; Mrs. Eleanor Morris Chambers, of San Diego, Cal., and Milton A. Morris, of this city. The burial will be in the family lot at Crown Hill cemetery.
