i have roye beaumont here, the oldest grandson and oldest son of beaumont (57). he was born and raised in nola but he left home at age 18 to attend the university of alabama to pursue a degree in political science. during his time at ua, he joined kappa alpha and served as president twice. he also developed heavy drinking and partying tendencies like many other college students do but never really grew out of it. to this day, he drinks and parties hard and has consequently developed a drug problem in nyc. he moved to nyc after finishing up his bachelor's degree to attend columbia law and pursue his j.d. after passing the state bar and officially becoming a lawyer, he decided to continue on with his life in nyc. it was ideal for him to stay in nyc to keep up with his pleasure seeking tendencies without having his family know how irresponsible he can really get. around his family members, he has always put up a responsible older brother front but of course, has been once or twice caught in his true colors. now back in nola, he's trying to keep his drug problem a secret to himself and himself only because some of his family members are already disappointed that the oldest hasn't settled down with a woman yet but instead has been bringing home a new girlfriend each year he's visited home.
