Our Family

This section is a conglomeration of past and present. Our whole family showed up for Cathy's 60th birthday party in August 2004. Here's a shot of all of us. Left to right, Dmitria, Cathy, Dean, Pandro, Ramona and Tracy.

Here's one more picture. Tracy's missing, as she took the picture.

Here's a shot of us and the kiddies at our wedding in 1994 at the Chapel in Yosemite Valley, with my mom thrown-in for good luck. Go to the bottom for some neat old photos.

Pandro and Tracy got married on July 7, 2001. Click on the picture below to see all the wedding pictures.

Here's Pandro and Tracy, uncommonly decked-out.

and a recent (April 2000) one of Pandro

This is Ramona in her garden in Arcata with some flowers from her garden.

Dmitria and Cathy shared a laugh half-way up the ridge above Granite Lake, in the Trinity Alps.

In the fall of 1998, Ramona visited Dmitria at her house in Corvallis, Oregon.

Cathy's mom, Nadja, and her second husband, Hal, were happy at home in their St. Louis kitchen. We lost Hal in 1997 and Nadja in 2002. We miss them both greatly.

In the golden age of radio, Cathy's dad, Ed Wilson, was a household name in St. Louis in the 40s, 50s and 60s.

Nadja was in the second class of the Missouri Rockets. They later became the Rockettes when they went to New York and played the Radio City Music Hall. We went to a reunion of them at the Muny in Forest Park in St. Louis in 1998. Hearing these women's stories was pretty cool. Here's a old promo picture of Nadja.

Cathy, Jane and her parents got ready to go to Japan a few years ago.

This is the way I remember my dad. He worked entirely too much. R.I.P.

Here's Bill and Sue in Cook's Forest, PA in the early 1950s.

And here they are at their humble abode in Philadelphia in the late 40s or early 50s. Dad looks awfully spruced-up. They were going off to a friend's wedding.

Mom and I had a good time at our wedding.

For some real background, particularly on my mom's family, you'll have to jump over to our Tripod site. Check out the cool old pictures of lots of dead guys on:
