Comment:

 I updated to 6.6 in the WP admin, and I am able to insert images, so the
 original issue is no longer present.

 The issue was resolved when I manually uploaded the files from 6.5.4 and
 then 6.5.5 via FTP, and now seems to be okay when updating to 6.6 via the
 admin. I don't know why that is. The best I can figure is that it was a
 file permissions issue, or a web quota issue on my Nginx and Virtualmin
 VPS, which may have been resolved by changing the quota on my user and
 group from "1GB" to "Unlimited." In any case, I'm going to close this
 ticket as resolved (works for me).

 Ken, you may want to ask one of your sons for help. Since it's a website
 and server, they can do it from anywhere. Give them your log-in info and
 it should only take them 10 minutes if they follow the steps I outlined
 above for reverting to 6.4.5.

 Then, just ''don't update'' the core WordPress files. It's that simple.

 * You can still update plugins or add and remove them.

 While it's bad advice in general to not update because of security
 concerns, in your case it won't matter much. You're not selling anything,
 aren't holding user info, and are only sharing photographs, so you don't
 have any major vulnerabilities. Instead, approach it like a large business
 where they lock themselves into a particular stack of software for a few
 years, and they only think about updates again at the end of those few
 years. Then you can focus on sharing your pictures and enjoying your site.

 Have a good one.
