My great grandfather earned his living in the Great Depression by driving a tanker truck to Seattle and filling it with heating oil and driving back to Eastern Washington. I found out a few years ago that one day he was grinding up a mountain pass and a "tramp" ran out of the forest and tried to truck jack him. Great grandpa pulled out a .32 revolver and shot him in the face and kept going. My Mom's dad passed away two years before I was born and he was a semi-famous architect. He helped design the World Trade Center so that was a cool thing. We never talked about him in my family but a relative told me he was a wife beating drunk. His wife (my Grandmother) was institutionalized and underwent electroshock therapy as a result and my Mom was basically a Mom to her two younger brothers for a year as a teenager. Mom is 79 and has never talked about this. I want to ask her but I don't want to make her
