Grandpa Grape

When Jason Eric Winn was born, back in 1978, he was the first grandchild of Paul and Donna Winn. When he got old enough to start talking, we found there was confusion, because there were TWO Grandpa Winns. Paul Winn was Grandpa Winn, and Bruce's grandfather, Marion Winn was Grandpa Winn as well. It was just too much for a little kid to figure out. So we started calling Great-Grandpa Winn our Grandpa Great, which he was. Fast forward to the next generation, and our grandkids now have two Grandpa Winns! So, Bruce has become Grandpa Winn and Paul Winn has been promoted to Grandpa Great. Only Alli and Madison always thought we were calling him Grandpa Grape. And that's what he is now. Anyway, Grandpa Grape had his 80th birthday, and we had a party for him because we love him so much. He has two children, twelve grandchildren, and fourteen great-grandchildren. More than eighty people who love and respect him joined us for a delicious dinner in honor of his birthday. (I will post some more pictures when I get the disk of the professional ones.)
