May, 2007 photo of Ellen Asprooth, Mark Jackson, and two-thirds of what is believed to be the current world supply of Asprooth-Jacksons: their sons Corey and Casey. (Kelly is pictured below.)
- Ellen is the District Reporter for the St. Lawrence District of the Unitarian Universalist Association.
- After high school Corey attended the Allen Institute, a residential post-secondary program in Connecticut for young adults with learning disabilities, for one and one-half years. When it closed in December 2007, some of the staff and most of the students regathered as an independent living group nearby. He's now living at home again while we work on his longer-term plans.
- Casey is a senior at Bard College, where he is a dual major in film production and human rights and played for three years on the varsity soccer team. He spent the first semester of his fourth year studying and shooting footage for his senior project in Palestine, in the Al-Quds Bard Honors College for Liberal Arts and Sciences.

August, 2009 photo of daughter-in-law Sara Weisman, Kelly Weisman Asprooth-Jackson, Ellen, Mark, and granddaughter Miriam Betty Weisman.
- Kelly, who earned his MDiv from Starr King School, returned to Rochester in 2008 for a year-long appointment as a resident chaplain at the University of Rochester Medical Center. In 2009-10 he was the Consulting Minister at Pullman Memorial Universalist Church in Albion NY. In June 2010 First Parish Church in Beverly, Massachusetts called Kelly as their 26th minister since 1667.
- Sara and Kelly met while they were both undergraduates at Bard. While they were in Rochester she worked as a postpartum doula and Lamaze childbirth educator.
- Mimi (b. July 28 2008) is growing up fast!
The rest of us were delighted to have all of them here in Rochester for two years. While we were sad when they moved it could be worse - Beverly is a comfortable one-day drive. We've not lost a granddaughter, we've gained a commute…
