the story from CNN
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.
