Dad, son and granddaughter graduating together


• 17-year-old Brittany Wright, her father and grandfather will receive diplomas.
• Brittany's 36-year-old father studied at night to make up 3.5 credits for graduation.
• 72-year-old grandfather Jim Hunley left high school to work in family business.

COTTONWOOD HEIGHTS, Utah (AP) -- Three generations of a Utah family are celebrating one milestone together: high school graduation.

Seventeen-year-old Brittany Wright, her father and her grandfather all are getting their diplomas this year.

Grandfather Jim Nunley is 72. He would have graduated in 1953 but left with a year to go to work in the family's painting business.

His son James is 36 and a truck driver. He worked a ten-hour shift, then studied history and science each night for a month to make up three-and-a-half credits he needed for a diploma.

Father and son will graduate Saturday. Brittany graduates next Tuesday.
