His Driver's License picture has to be an old one (he looks no where near 64 in that photo to me). In Illinois they let you keep your old photo if renewing online - I think I went about 8 years before I got a new picture. So he may look much different. Jane's middle name is Irene (no court activity on her but a couple old very minor parking infractions).

Daniel has had more recent vehicular tickets (seatbelt, speeding, both minor) but more noteably had several cases for commitment 10+ years ago due to mental illness in Carlton County (most recent) and Aitkin County (1991 case). I hope he's still getting the care he needs, and will reach out for help during whatever is going on with them now.
