My wife Alicia is quite pretty and elegant, but she values her privacy greatly. As a long-suffering computer widow, I'll not compound her displeasure by keeping her photo on that blankety-blank screen for all the world to see.

 

On June 7,2001, Lisa became Mrs. Joel Carey in a beautiful oceanside ceremony in St. Thomas, USVI.

 

Now she has her own beautiful little girl... Gwen

Gwen and Lisa recently decorated their Easter cake.

 

Jane's a cute red head... thanks to Carey genes,

with a proud big sister! 

Our wedding dance photo...

is a little bit different than the sixth grade Father-Daughter dance...

...which was about the time that Dawn Marie (and Lisa) were in the musical, The Music Man.

Dawn at graduation. Boy, I can sure make fine looking women.

Dawn's a lovely bride for Todd also.

 Hmmm, this just seems to happen when folks get married.  Clara James Irby is another beauty.

Here's the family, including Jacob, after Clara's christening.

Clara has flowered as well.

Chris was deservedly proud of being on Poway's California state champion lacrosse team.

More recently, he convinced the lovely Vanessa Campet to marry him.

My sister, Mary Anne Williams, has retired from teaching school in Arkansas, and does a great Patsy Cline on the side. She sang in the choir at Immanuel Baptist in Little Rock for years with President Clinton, although she likes me to note that she was a soloist, but he was not.

I think it's OK to still like to dance with your sister. Hmmm, this man seems to dance a lot. Sometime ask Alicia how I first caught her attention.

My mother, Mary Louise Sexton Eoff Register, whom we buried in 1996 on her eightieth birthday. I chose her inscription to be "She Taught By Example". Her many students and her family will so attest and sorely miss her love and guidance.

My father, James Thomas Karam Sr., known to literally all in Arkansas as Jimmy -- first, because of all the TV ads he ran for his Men's Stores where he worked almost 50 years until his May 2000 passing; and second because of his wide witness for the Lord.

 And, yes, President Clinton was gracious enough to allow my father, and my lovely step-mother Eleanor, to spend the night in the Lincoln Bedroom. And, anyone who knows him will just laugh if you suggest Daddy paid for the privilege. How anyone could catch so much grief for being kind to friends and elders is beyond me.

Here's a photo of Chris, Dawn, and Lisa. When did they grow up?

And here's Mary Anne, her husband Al, and son Jimmy enjoying our home theater in Madison, WI.
