Party like it's 1919

Yesterday we belatedly celebrated my Grandpa Jack's (dad's dad) 90th birthday. His actual birthday was December 12, 1919. Our whole family met in Rockford for dinner and a Euchre tournament.
This is my Uncle Randy, Grandpa, dad, Aunt Mary Ann, and Uncle Gordon.
After dinner everyone said something they were thankful for about Grandpa Jack. This was him giving his "acceptance speech" with his arm around Grandma Marge (she'll be 90 in July). They have been married 68.5 years.
Before the Euchre tournament, my aunt had made a photo tribute of Grandpa's life. This was Nanny and Papa cuddling on the couch.
