Subject: RE: BS: Relationship problems
To my understanding, he is your children's "grand-uncle". In our family, we always used "great-uncle" for that relationship, but my mother recently told me that the bona fide term is granduncle, and that that a great-uncle is of the same generation as a great-grandparent.

And my mother's always right.
