Obituary: Eulogy for Beloved Dad

By Carolyn Meiling Cheng Tu

In loving memory, my sister Chiling and my brother Hans are joining me to recount our fathers life. Hans told me yesterday that he would be with us in spirit from Switzerland at this very moment.

Our father, Dr. K. L. Cheng, was born on 14, 1915, at Yangzhou, China. He was the second child with an older brother and three younger sisters in a modest family.

Our father had a strong and independent personality ever since he was little. At the age of 12, he left home to work as a child laborer in Shanghai. Due to malnutrition, he almost died of beri-beri. Luckily, he was taken to a German hospital where the doctor not only saved his life but told him to go home and go to school. He listened to the advice and began to study diligently, a practice that he maintained throughout his life. He called himself a prodigal son coming home.

Dad was a good student, but his family could not afford paying his tuition. One day, he took courage to bring his problem to the principal. checking on his grades, the principal approved a waiver of his tuition immediately. Dad said that was the happiest day of his life. This hardship made him extremely compassionate to students in need. Later in his life, he set up many scholarships to help students pay tuitions.

Dads first job was teaching physical education in a Yangzhou elementary school. He gave his entire salary to Grandmother to support the household. Later, he was transferred to Nanjing where he was exposed to a bigger world and developed a vision of going to college. His dream was coming true when he got admission to the Beijing Teachers . However, this put him in a dilemma because he worried that he would not be able to support Grandma and his younger siblings any longer. It was Uncle Kuang Fu who offered to take over responsibility for the family and encouraged him to go to college.

During the war with Japan, Dad moved to Szechuan with the college staff and eventually graduated from Northwest of Agriculture, majoring in Agricultural Chemistry. His graduate thesis presented a formula using the chemical elements to replace the traditional technique of making the housand year old egg.

the war, Dad returned to Nanjing. One day he saw people gathering on the street to read a newspaper on the wall. In the paper was a list of people qualified for government scholarships to study in US. To his surprise, his name was on the list! However, Dad hesitated to accept the scholarship because he worried no one would support Grandmother. Again, it was Uncle Kuang-Fu who promised to take over full support for the family and encouraged Dad to go. Until Dads last days on earth, he was grateful for Uncles support, and credited Uncle for the many achievements in Dads life.

Dad received his Ph.D. in Analytical Chemistry from the University of Illinois, Champaign-Urbana in 1951. His dissertation earned him the reputation of a pioneer of the development of PAN as an analytical reagent. On one occasion, he was actually being introduced as Dr. PAN during his visit at a research institute in Moscow.

Before establishing himself in academia, Dad worked for a tobacco company. In a very short time, he surprised the company by identifying all its competitors trade secrets. Later, he worked for Westinghouse. Again, in a short time, he resolved a critical problem they had encountered in the semi-conductor research and successfully developed the first semi-conductor for Westinghouse.

Despite of his career success in industry, Dads passion was for pure science research. He took a teaching job at the University of Connecticut and later worked for GE/RCA laboratories. In 1966, he was recruited as a professor by the University of Missouri at Kansas City where he spent almost 50 years of his life. During this time, Dad accomplished many significant discoveries, published many papers, obtained patents for his inventions, architected a photoelectron spectrometer (the first at a Midwestern university), and earned a reputation as a world authority on electrode and solid-state chemistry with many recognitions and awards. In later years, he achieved a revolutionary breakthrough in his research of electric interfacial layers by discovering a Triple Layer which he believed to be the answer to the limitation of the existing Double Layer theory (DLVO).

Dad became a true Missourian. He often stressed the importance of experiments to his students with the statement, Ill show you, but you have to show me. He loved Kansas City, UMKC and the Linda Hall Library. Although I had to bring him to southern California when his health was failing, we knew he left his heart in Kansas City.

Besides researching in chemistry, Dad also enjoyed sketching and poetry. He was a world traveler who covered all seven continents including Antarctica. He had theories on longevity, enjoyed creating new words such as Xodarap (opposite of Paradox), and improving Chinese characters by combining many words into one. As late as two months ago, he still asked me to drop him off at the UC Irvine Science library. Although I always worried about his safety, seeing him walking slowly step by step with his cane towards the library, I knew that was where Dads passion was and it could not be stopped. The UMKC Journal one time had a feature story about Dads Unconventional Wisdom. The Dean even used Dad as a model in one of the commencements to challenge the graduates to never stop discovering in life.

Dad had three children. I, the oldest, grew up in Taiwan. Chiling, the second, grew up in Shanghai, and Hans, the youngest, grew up in Switzerland. We all got to meet and spend time with Dad when we grew up. Not continued...
