The four friends are actually the longhorn, the tiger, the cougar, and the bear. They are all located in Houston, and they each donated a body part to an ailing orangutan.

Following up with links:

http://www.houstontx.gov/parks...tled(Orangutan).html (orangutan)

http://www.houstontx.gov/parks...s/evelynfriends.html (cougar)

http://www.houstontx.gov/parks...rollingbearcubs.html (bear)

http://www.houstontx.gov/parks...ngcoebasreliefs.html (tiger)

All are statues/sculptures. The orangutan's plaque calls him the "old man of the forest," so the orangutan is the "father" of the other 4 "animals" in the park/"forest."

You have friends from each school and were in a fraternity together, graduated together, and are in the medical field together. Or...you have four children where at least one graduated at one of the mentioned schools, and you are Dad to them. Congratulations!! Heck its worth a try right?

Those 4 people were your groomsman at your wedding in Houston, and those are the mascots of the schools they attended.

These are the mascots of the schools your siblings attended.
