On June 26 my Grandpa, Jay Memmott turned 90.
He is an amazing man, as a young man he served in WWII as a mechanic and spent a lot of time in France during that time. When he and my Grandma were married they drove up to Salt Lake and eloped at the court house, they have three children my mom and her two brothers. He has done both dairy and beef farming growing his own hay. He still gets out to take care of his cattle most days and if the cows are in the coral by the house he feeds them morning and night. Grandpa Jay is loving and caring, I love to get a hug every time we see him.

We had a big party in his honor on Saturday June 27th. I think all but 2 of his grandchildren were there. It was so much fun to get together with so many cousins and enjoy being a big family. I'm so glad Katie has been able to get to know her Great grandpa a bit, she is named after his mom after all.
