Edward returned to New York after the war to finish school and begin practicing law. During this time, he met Mary Elizabeth Haskell of Wenatchee, WA who in 1946 became his soul mate for 61 years. In 1950, Edward and Mary relocated to Seattle for a better quality of life and as an ideal location to practice in Edward’s chosen specialty, maritime law. Edward joined law firm Bogle & Gates where he practiced and was senior partner in its Admiralty Law Practice Group until retirement in 1982.

62346. Frederika Christina Ross

San Francisco Chronicle (CA)
January 26, 2009

At age 50, Christina Ross Middlebrook of San Francisco learned she had late-stage breast cancer and was told she did not have long to live. That was in 1991. Ms. Middlebrook, a Jungian analyst who went on to write an award-winning memoir about dealing with her illness, defied medical predictions for nearly two decades. She died Tuesday at her Mendocino County home. She was 67. "She was a woman of astonishing willpower," said Jonathan Middlebrook, her husband of 23 years. "She was just strong - strong - right to the end." She was also someone who spoke and wrote openly about the dark things that other people often shroud in euphemism or deny outright. Like death, or what it feels like to have metastatic breast cancer.

Carl Jung, the early 20th century Swiss psychiatrist, wrote: "Death is psychologically as important as birth. Shrinking away from it is something unhealthy and abnormal which robs the second half of life of its purpose." Ms. Middlebrook didn't shrink away from it. Instead she confronted the shocking diagnosis head on, writing "Seeing the Crab: A Memoir of Dying Before I Do" with frankness and clarity. "I want the well-entrenched American denial system to change," she wrote. "We are taught that when a person informs us 'I am dying' or 'I'm in deep s- here,' we are to respond by saying 'Oh, no. No, you're not. You'll be fine.' "

In a book review that appeared in The Chronicle in 1996, Steve Heilig, director of public health and education for the San Francisco Medical Society, called it a "brave book" that "includes not only the agonies and frustrations of negotiating the medical maze, but inspiring amounts of support from her husband and children and seemingly endless numbers of friends."

Her willingness to face the diagnosis head on - and her insistence that doctors speak plainly with her - may be attributed only partly to her Jungian training. Unapologetic practicality and plainspokenness were also just her way. Her husband recalled a walk they took one day while on vacation. A snail was inching its way along the walkway ahead of them, and he - an English professor at San Francisco State University- began spinning a yarn about its life and where it might be going. "Then she just stomped on the thing!" he recalled with amusement. "I asked why, and she said, 'Habit. I'm a gardener.' "

Born on Oct. 17, 1941, in Evanston, Ill., Ms. Middlebrook graduated from Middlebury College in Vermont in 1963. Three years later, she earned a master's degree from the University of Chicago School of Social Work.

During this time, she married Gordon Cutts. The couple had three children, but the marriage did not last. In 1985, she married Middlebrook. "She was the best thing that could possibly have happened to me," he said.

Ms. Middlebrook practiced psychotherapy for 40 years at what was then known as Presbyterian Hospital in San Francisco, and then in private practice. She became a licensed Jungian analyst in 1985 and was an active member of the C.G. Jung Institute of San Francisco. A decade later, her memoir earned the Jonquils Award from the Duke University Comprehensive Cancer Center, honoring "efforts to increase awareness and give hope" to those with cancer. It also won the "Books for a Better Life" award for memoir in 1997. When she wrote her book, Ms. Middlebrook believed death was imminent. "I have lost any thought of returning to my old life, watching my children enjoy graduations and find work and marry and have children. I do not think of my work, with its attendant conferences and meetings and committees. There isn't any question any more about my retirement, that mythological time when I was supposed to have earned enough money and enjoyed enough success to relax. I do not expect to know my grandchildren. I do not expect to grow old. I don't even think about the spring."

But Ms. Middlebrook did live to see her children marry, and she knew all five grandchildren, ages 3 months to 7 years. She also lived long enough to enjoy the home that she and her husband built in Redwood Valley (Mendocino County) overlooking Lake Mendocino, a place they called "the landscape of our hearts' desire."

In addition to her husband, Jonathan, of Redwood Valley, Ms. Middlebrook is survived by her sons Ethan Cutts of Fair Oaks (Sacramento County) and James Cutts of Los Angeles; her daughter Maggie Araya of San Francisco; stepdaughters Leah Middlebrook of Eugene, Ore., and Sophie Middlebrook of San Francisco; and her five grandchildren.

Salt Lake Tribune
June 22, 2007

Dr. Cheves T. Walling died peacefully at the RiverMead Retirement Community in Peterborough, NH on June 19, 2007. Dr. Walling was born in Evanston, Illinois on February 28, 1916 to the late Willoughby and Frederika (Haskell) Walling, the youngest of four children.

He was a physical organic chemist, best known for his research on the mechanisms of free radical reactions and as "one of the founding fathers of radical chemistry." After undergraduate work at Harvard University (1937), and obtaining a Ph.D. in 1939 at the University of Chicago, he worked in industry for 12 years at DuPont, U.S. Rubber, and Lever Brothers. In 1952 Dr. Walling joined the Columbia University faculty where he taught for 17 years. In 1957 his book "Free Radicals in Solution" was published and it became a classic which contributed to the education of a generation of chemists. In 1969 Dr. Walling joined the Chemistry Department at the University of Utah in Salt Lake City, where he was a Distinguished Professor. He remained there until his retirement as a Professor Emeritus in 1991, and throughout his career served as a mentor to numerous graduate and post-doctoral students. While he was at Utah he assumed various professional responsibilities; as editor-in-chief of the Journal of the American Chemical Society (1975-1981), and as a member and chair of the ACS Committee on Professional Training. During his career Dr. Walling published over 200 papers on free radical chemistry and accrued a number of awards, including his election to the National Academy of Sciences (1965), the Norris Award in Physical Chemistry (1971) and the ACS Award in Petroleum Chemistry (1984), as well as enjoying a worldwide reputation as a lecturer and consultant.

As described in his biography published by the ACS in 1995, "Cheves Walling is like a large river that seems calm and at rest, when in fact, it is moving quite rapidly beneath the surface, a strong current pulling it on ceaselessly." Throughout his life Dr. Walling was an avid outdoor enthusiast, enjoying sailing, skiing and hiking throughout the west, but particularly in southern Utah. He and his wife also enjoyed traveling throughout the world, in many cases while lecturing and teaching in a number of countries including Japan, China, Russia, and Australia. He spread his love of learning and traveling to his entire family. In 1991 Dr. and Mrs. Walling retired to their longtime summer residence in Jaffrey.

Cheves was a loving, devoted husband and father and he will be remembered with great love and affection by Jane (Wilson) Walling of Peterborough, his wife of 66 years, five children; his son Cheves H. and Stella Walling of Rindge, NH; and four daughters, Hazel and her husband David Nourse of Bedford, NY and Westborough, MA; Rosalind and her husband William Gumaer of Stuyvesant Falls, NY; Janie Jones of San Diego, CA; and Barbara and her husband Barry Frank of Cedar City, UT; 10 grandchildren, and nine great-grand-children.
