"Ralph is working on a mechanical engineering degree," she said proudly. "I know he'd like to get involved with the automobile industry. Calvin hasn't decided anything yet. He's the 'free spirit' in this family. He's going to be a little later maturing."

Merilee bounded down the stairs two at a time and skipped across the room to me, full of enthusiasm.
