Grandpa Jenson....80?
You would not believe that my grandpa is 80 years old. He can tap dance like no one's business and exercises every day religiously for an hour and a half. He is so handsome and young looking that I couldn't believe we celebrated his 80th birthday last week.
My Grandpa Jenson is my hero. I have so much respect and love for him that I couldn't express in words how much he means to me. My grandpa has been another father to me and has taught me how to love music and the gospel. He spent many hours teaching me to sing and many more listening to me play the piano. He has a beautiful voice and even sang in the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, so it was an honor to study with him. He appreciated my talents so much, even my silly ones. I do a snow white impersonation and on many occasions he would ask me to perform it for him. I could always go to my grandpa when I was struggling. He listened sincerely and then would tell me, "Then let's do something about it." He never just sat there and felt sorry for me. He pushed me to be who I am and I will be forever grateful.
Happy Birthday Grandpa! I love you so much!
