Carol Medvec's beloved "rock" can't be found in a park, on the ground or on the side of a mountain. To find her rock, one has to look through the branches of her family tree to none other than her 78-year-old father, Harold "Red" Mathieson.

Mathieson, of Hermitage, is probably one of the spryest mature men one could ever meet.

For example, he helped move Mrs. Medvec and her five children into their new four-bedroom home when the movers failed to show up two years ago.

Around that time, he and his daughter also cut down five 110-foot-tall trees for woodworking.
