or

not
- Mr. and Mrs. James Luciano
or

Ensure parallel treatment of work associates:
- Raymond Kovacs and his assistant Karen White
- Margaret Thompson, Vice-President, and her executive secretary Bill White
not
- Mr. Kovacs and his assistant Karen
- Margaret Thompson, Vice-President, and her executive secretary Bill
Alternate order of reference so that one sex is not always given second place:
