My brother and I grew up close to two brothers who went on to become an oral surgeon and an attorney. Their parents both worked for the local newspaper, the father a Linotype operator at night and the mother an editor during the day. The parents were very hard workers and inspired an admirable work ethic in their children. The oral surgeon told me that when his mother retired the paper needed two younger employees to accomplish all she did.
