OK I’m going to try and ask my question in a different way, because I find it hard to believe that “all will be lost”.
So, pasted below is some code and text copied from the Text tab from within my Edit Page window:
<div class="one-third">
<a title="Staff & Consultants" href="http://192.145.238.144/~insigh53/staff-consultants/"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-338" src="http://192.145.238.144/~insigh53/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/collaboration_temp_1038x400-300x115.png" alt="collaboration_temp_1038x400" width="300" height="115" /></a>
<h3><a title="Staff & Consultants" href="http://192.145.238.144/~insigh53/staff-consultants/">Staff & Consultants</a></h3>
Tagline text here.
</div>
<div class="one-third">
<a href="http://192.145.238.144/~insigh53/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/collaboration_temp_1038x400.png"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-338" src="http://192.145.238.144/~insigh53/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/collaboration_temp_1038x400-300x115.png" alt="collaboration_temp_1038x400" width="300" height="115" /></a>
<h3><a title="Board of Directors" href="http://192.145.238.144/~insigh53/board-of-directors/">Board of Directors</a></h3>
Tagline text here.
</div>
This code here was generated by using the Visual tab and inserting image and styling with drop down menu, ALL IN THE VISUAL TAB of WP:
and the <h3></h3>
Then within the Text tab of WP on the Edit Page window I inserted the <div class=”one-third”> [blah blah blah] </div>.
I did this to achieve 3 columns below the main text content.
I find it hard to believe that if when I need to update WP theme that all the code, including the code generated from styling from the Visual tab will be lost.
Here is a ink to my site:

I am using a Child theme .css to affect any parent .css that I want to change
Thank you again!
