degree from New Mexico State and became the CEO of Levitation Solutions, Inc. He helped his father realize his long standing dream when they designed the first frictionless crane using Jarrod’s antigravity technology. He and Ryan still love to fish in the Pecos wilderness, spending quiet time together. They never again exchanged a cross word following their ordeal in Kentucky. Jer lives alone in Bernalillo, New Mexico, and actively participates in the community theater company. Sarah remains hopeful that he will one day find the love of his life.
Ryan and Jarrod likewise never again spoke of their past animosity or even acknowledged that they had once been estranged. They each believe that through Jer’s extraordinary efforts, they had somehow been miraculously healed that night in Stanford. Each of the events that transpired following their reconciliation cemented their relationship in a manner identical to the unshakable bond their grandfather Amerigo had with his brother, Tulio. They would never again forsake their common ancestry, blessed by an unwavering faith in one another. They each finally understood the profound meaning of their grandfather’s learned saying: ‘ The hardest steel passes through the hottest fire.’
