Marjorie and Ralph are both U.C.L.A. graduates. In 1962 they started a medical device company that grew to be listed on the New York Stock Exchange.

Ralph serves on the Thayer School of Engineering Board of Overseers at Dartmouth College. They endowed the Crump Institute of Molecular Imaging at U.C.L.A and three professorships, including one at Dartmouth. They have three children, all involved in manufacturing. Marjorie currently serves on the Kansas State Historical Society's board. She was past regent of her DAR chapter and served as Connecticut State Councilor of DAR for three years. Ralph is a veteran of all three theaters of World War II combat. While a cadet, he was promoted to Third Engineer on one of the famous Liberty ships and was honorably discharged as Lt. Jg., U.S.N.R.
