Grandpa Winn

Kevin's Grandpa Winn passed away and the funeral was last week, but we weren't able to make it up to Cedar City. We are grateful that we were able to go up last month and see him one last time.

Kevin remembers when he was little, he looked out the window and saw Grandpa Winn rolling something across the yard. Winn and Dad were putting in the merry-go-round that Grandpa Winn had made. Our kids still love playing on that merry-go-round. Here's Kevin with Grandpa before he left on his mission to Dominican-Republic, March 1998.
I met Kevin's large extended family at Grandpa's 80th birthday. Kevin drove up to Provo from Riverside, CA to pick me up, then back down to Cedar City for the big birthday bash. We were just dating, not even engaged yet. Here's pictures from our wedding day, June 16, 2001.

Here's Erma and Winn with Brooklyn when she was 3 months old, July 2003.
Here's Brooklyn, Hunter, and Nathan with Erma and Winn, June 2009.

And the cousins

We love you Grandpa Winn!

Kevin and Holley--SO SORRY to hear about this! But it is soo sweet that you were able to see him and have your kids meet him/be with him/get some final pictures before his time came. That is a great blessing!

Love you!
