Started in 1973, the Cramer Clan is currently five...and predictably growing:

Carl Cramer (Dad)
Born and bred in Chillicothe, Missouri, he moved to Janesville, Wisconsin in the 1966 where he eventually met his future-wife Lucille Brandt. They were both teaching mathematics in the Janesville Public Schools when they met, dated, and were then married in 1973. Carl still teaches mathematics in Janesville, using his PhD in Secondary Education to work with decades of high school students. He is very active in his church, the local Macintosh User's Group, and in his hobbies which include electronic & computer collection and refurbishing, amateur radio (W9KRP), historical documentaries, and non-fiction reading.  He also attends Spanish class.

Luci Cramer (Mom)
Born Lucille Brandt, Luci was raised on a farm in western Wisconsin. After high school, she studied Mathematics and German at the University of Wisconsin. Shortly after graduation, she took a teaching position with the Janesville Public Schools. Upon meeting and marrying Carl Cramer, she devoted herself to her new family and left her teaching position. Luci has been very active in her children's lives and in her local church. Now that her youngest is in university, she works part-time as a teacher's aide (teaching enrichment math to small groups of students) at her children's old elementary school in Janesville.  In 2003, she became a Mary Kay Independent Beauty Consultant.  She also participates in a local German language club, attends Spanish class, takes long walks with friends, loves to play cards, and volunteers regularly in her community.  Luci has a pet canary, Sienna, who keeps us entertained daily with his beautiful concerts.
